Hurt by Everyone

I am the one who's been hurt by everyone,
My heart has been shattered and torn,
By the ones I thought I could trust,
And the ones who left me alone.

I gave them all my love and care,
And yet they took it all for granted,
Leaving me with nothing but pain,
And memories that are now tainted.

I trusted them with all my heart,
But they used it to break me apart,
Leaving me with scars that won't heal,
And a soul that's now darkened with fear.

I try to forget and move on,
But the wounds are still fresh and raw,
And the pain keeps coming back,
Like an endless, relentless claw.

I wonder if there's anyone out there,
Who'll love me for who I am,
And heal the wounds that others have caused,
And make me feel alive again.

But until then, I'll keep on going,
With the weight of the hurt and pain,
For I know that one day, I'll find someone,
Who'll love me and make me whole again.
