Dear Mom and Dad

I'm sorry. I'm sorry I wasn't what you wanted. I'm sorry I'm not your dream child. I'm sorry I'm not beautiful. I'm sorry I'm not smart. I'm sorry I'm not talented, That I didn't deserve your attention. So sorry for not being popular, Or thin and perfect. I'm sorry I'm fat, And I know I deserve this silent treatment. I deserve the bullying, The comments, the  glares. I'm sorry my ruddy legs, Only got me this far in life. I'm sorry these red eyes, Can't see anything but pity. You haven't spoken to me in ages, So I know you won't miss me. You have ever asked me how I feel, So I know you won't care. I'm pretty sure you'd be happy To see this letter. You don't have to pretend, You love me anymore. I know. You'll have the perfect family: A rich Dad, A happy Mom, A beautiful Daughter and A smart Son. I know I don't fit here, So there's no denying. I'm sorry I have to do this, But life doesn't want me here, Or anywhere for that matter. So I've decided to run away. Alone. No one needs me, Believe me, I know. I want you to know I love you, Even if you don't. Last of all, I'm sorry I was never good enough. Yes, I wish me to hell as well. From, The daughter you never loved.
