Story of My Life

Why can't my heart just accept
I've always been a reject
Friends I never truly had
Making me blue and so sad
Laughed at every single day
My life was in total dismay
Why can't others look and see
More than the outside of me
Inside my emotions are
Brighter than the biggest star
Full of love, kindness and care
I try to spread cheer everywhere
But that doesn't count at all
When i'm pushed against the wall
With all of the large peer pressure
That turns my life nothing lesser
Than I planned on it to be
Is it wrong to be friendly
Not wanting  to drink and smoke
It feels like I'm being poked
With a finger of the devil
Tipping the balance of level
I don't want to slide off from
By acting stupid and dumb
Doing things I really hate
Will not make me feel great
So I live life on my own
Being the girl I've always known
Waiting patiently to find
Someone else so pure and kind
That accepts the way I live
A true friendship I will give
