Maybe its time that you can see
I just want to be me
I’m sick of being pushed around
I’m not going to turn around
just because you want me too
I need to be free
I need to like who I am and just be me
I need to say what I want
I don’t understand why I cannot
I hate always getting yelled at for something I cant handle
I’m different than other people and you never accept me
you always compare me to everyone
I know that everyone else is so great
I know you think i hurt you
and I know I do
but don’t you see you hurt me too?
You have never once accepted me for who I am
I know that I’m not pretty and smart like you want
but I try so hard
and even then
nothings ever good enough for you
Don’t you see I love you
and you just shove your hate right in my face
I know you love me too
but sometimes it doesn’t feel like you do

I've felt something like that...the frustration of loving someone who shows up only fleetingly, just outside your reach, both physical and emotional.

"I know you love me too."
And yet someone that loved you would accept you for who you are...part of love is acceptance...James

Understanding love and the way people who are supposed to love us or do love us act is at times a bigger mystery than the stars..

No love, however, should be filled with the thoughts " I am not good enough" or the statement "you are not good enough"....

hugs from a hijacker for the pain...
