I Just Want To Be Loved

I am 12 years old and I have mastered a fake smile.
 My family is not perfect we all have our flaws.
 I have been bullied my whole life. 
I have scars and feelings just like everyone else.
 My whole life I have been looking for a friend that won’t leave me 
but they do I don’t blame them I would leave me to.
 Who wants to talk to someone who holds so much in. 
Words fail me often but music doesn’t.
 I have always thought that life is worth the fight but now I’m questioning that.
 My heart is broken but someday it will be fixed. 
It’s okay to cry it doesn’t mean you are weak it means you have been strong for far too long.
 I hold my feelings inside and I know it’s not good but I don’t want to be judged.
 I just want to be loved…...

I have you by 7 years here and hundreds of poems. But with writing comes wisdom. And with living comes trials. You'll find the loves you seek with errie regret. And write about each one with love of this I'll bet. Your lines will speak terrible truths. Telling the stories of me and you.
