Sense of Belonging

Sadness seeps into me

The feelings I dread PUSH past my hard exterior

I know that if I looked in the mirror

I would see

Sadness

Tears

A shell of who I used to be

The ghost of my old self

haunts me throughout the day

 

Why does the world have to be so cruel?

I want….I HAVE WANTS

I Want

TO BELONG

TO BE LOVED

TO BE WANTED BY SOMEONE

 

As I stare into the mirror,

I see a girl with tears

down her face I no longer recognize the girl staring back at me
