All I crave is your approval. You cannot see, my constant struggle. Cheapening my image, and selling my soul. What you think of me, Mere flimsy fiction. And I'll never know, Why your touch, Strikes like lightening- setting me ablaze, and stopping my heart. "I want love on my own terms; after everything I've ever learned. Me, I carry too much baggage..." |

Thanks to you all for your comments. But I think this was misinterpreted. I figured it might be. This was written more in a general sense than for any "special person"... it's more about my need for approval and attention and how far I will go to get that attention. Why it is that I go after guys that I otherwise might not like or be attracted to. It's an off the wall interpretation maybe, but that's really how it was written.

All I crave is your approval. You cannot see, my constant struggle I like this one very much. It's not very long, but it definitely doesn't need to be. I know what it's like strive for someone else's approval; to go to extremes in hope that this person will notice you, and give you some attention. But it's important not to change who you really are-not for anyone. That's something I'm still trying to learn. ![]() ~*I'd rather you hate me for what I am than love me for what I'm not.*~ |

Jenn, you and I are like 2 peas in a pod...LOL I can always relate to your writing. It's odd. ![]() Awesome piece, as usual...I ecspecially loved the ending lines. "I'd rather die purposely alone than to have lived an accidental life of solitude."- Jesa "§ùgã®" Thompson |

Aww, but, Jenn... you're too beautiful to change for someone else. Just be you. Because, in the end, that's the best person you can be ![]() Very well written poem. Short and to the point... nicely done! --Marie If there's one thing I've learned, it's that the most frustrated people in the world are those who know they're stupid, but keep trying anyway. |
