If I knew someone cared.
If I knew someone loved.
I would be able to
Handle without
Messing up.
If I was pretty.
If I was kind.
I would no longer be
The girl
People want to leave
Behind.
If they didn’t expect
So much out
Of me.
If only the would
Like me for who
I am.
I don’t think
I would no
Longer give a damn.
I care about
Your thought,
I care how you feel.
Why can’t
I allow my
Pain to heal?
