Waiting
to hear
do you want to come
with us?

Lets go!
with a smile on
their faces

Join us!
with approval in
their eyes

because you're so
cool
so awesome

The words
I like you

Instead I see
something else

Is it
mean looks?
Disdain?
You're in my way?
Move!

Do I hear
Yes I do hear
worthless
And other utterings
which make me
cold
bold in the mean way
sad with dry tears
mad with burning hate inside

They leave me
alone

Always alone

So when they ask me
Finally

I say no
with a smile that cry
They see a happy face
instead the pain hidden under
a sweet blanket

Why should I go
when they probably
dont really
want
to have me there

So I am

alone

Alone

I love You
You love Me
and that is how
it should continue
to be

My heart
is never broken
but the pieces
need to be
nurtured
and mended
properly
so I dont fall
into real despair.

You are beautiful
You are strong
You are lovely
You are kind
You are
you
And dont
let anyone
steal those traits
from you

I
Did not
Know
I could
Be
This happy

Until you
Peeked upon me
My world
From behind
This metal cage
With limited company
Scary loneliness
And a non caring human
Was what I had

You smiled
So weird
You whispered
And talked
With a warm
Caring
Voice

You
Opened the door
And said
I could come out

You
Touched my head
And I Did not
Understand
This new feeling

So I
Crouched
Ears down
Body pressed to
The bottom of this
Stinking cage

So scary
But

I
Decided
To listen

Walking
On the stone floor
In this house
Much more interesting
I felt
Love

You did not
Chase me
Did not
Reprimand
Did not say
Anything
Only
Looked
At me
The short time
I was out

You gave me
Hope
And now
Still in this cage
I will
Never
Forget
Your sweet
Kindness

I am
lost
but not
alone

You are
lost
and alone

I feel
alone
dead as
stone
withered bone
should I
drown?

You feel
good alone
even when lost
on youre own
grown
with a frown
towards the pity
crown

Hurt
and crying

Unhurt
not trying

To be
a part of
something more
