Comfort Me
Comfort me, for I have been hurt one to many times. Sometimes I feel unworthy
of love and affection. I have been through way more than any teenage girl should
ever have to endure. I feel dirty although I know I am clean. Sometimes I wonder
if somebody would just comfort me and tell me how worthy I am. Neglected by
my parents, disowned by family. Alone in the world at seventeen with a child on
the way. Put into the system three years ago, bounced from placement to
placement with no comfort given. I feel as if people can see right through me and
they laugh at my pain. Unworthy of being a duaghter, for nobody will claim me as
their own. Sometimes I think to myself if only I could fly away to a place where my
past doesn't matter and the pain was taken away, would that finally be the place
to comfort me?
