Even Just For a Second

Even Just For A Second

Unwanted, unneeded,
uncared, unloved,
abused, neglected.
That is me

I am a freak.
Unwanted by many,
unneeded,
abused and neglected.

Even just for a day,
an hour, a minute.
Even just for a second,
I want to feel loved.

Just for a second,
if not for a minute,
an hour or a day,
I just want to be loved.

Unwanted, unneeded,
uncared, unloved,
abused, neglected.
That is me

How I want to,
break free from this!
How I want to,
Be loved…

But this is me.
Unwanted, unneeded,
uncared, unloved,
by one and by many.

Abused and neglected,
by one and by many.
But this is me,
and my life.

Just for a second,
I wish to be loved,
 I wished to be noticed.
Even just for a second.

Not a day or an hour,
not a minute but a second.
I wish to be loved,
wished I had a meaning...
