I have tried what I can to
fully love myself regardless
of how many boys who
I wanted to impress.

Truly, my love will come
but I've encountered
so many rejections. Am
I too much of a bother?

For once, I want someone
to look at me with adoration
in their eyes. Someone
who thinks my flaws are perfection.

I know I am worth so
much more. But it's hard
to believe in soul
mates when no one wants my heart.
