All I Ever Wanted

All I ever wanted was love,
they never loved me enough,
I don't  think they even knew the
meaning of love.....
To them love is fighting, arguments, curse words, beating, putting eachother 
down, and cheating.....that is all I know, that is all I seen.
All I have are unhappy childhood memories,
raised myself, no role model to look up to, no one!
All I ever wanted was love,
just saying the words are never enough,
no hugs, no comforting words,
no one to heal your soul from the hurt,
All I ever wanted was love.
