What's Truly Sad
What's truly sad to me,
Is how those whom like family come first for you,
How it reminds me I was never family to you, too.
What I've truly envied,
Was how unlike you, I had the family you never had,
But my lacking of the sense of family you have now.
What truly makes me pitiful,
Is how I am not as beautiful a person as I seem to be,
For at times I feel undeserving of such love, and yet so lonely, too.
Indeed, what is truly sad for me,
Is not in how you cannot set me free from this misery,
But how you will never see, just how much you relieved me of this lonely feeling.
