To Everyone I've Ever Known

I don't know if I can love you.

(Not the way you want me to)

My heart is sore, and I think a little rotted.

My brain is controlled by someone I don't know

I'm cursed, my soul's been twisted

Too far from what it once was

I'm a cat raised by dogs, I believe I'm something I've never been

I'm an ugly duckling, but I'm not sure I'm a swan,

and I'm a tall strong tree but I'm really the mistletoe on a spruce log.

I don't think I can love you.

(Not the way they want me to)

-----------

Have this thing I found on my "ramblings" document. I think I wrote it like 3 months ago? 

I like it even though the rhyme scheme is awful. It's more important to me to be genuine than keep up a good rhyme scheme anyway.

Enjoy my sparse but lovely readers!
