Poems

Have you?

Have you ever felt like an outsider in your own home?

Like everyone else is so willing to talk to you
But when you need to talk, no one is there to listen?

Like your dreams are better than reality
And you would rather lay asleep  forever than wake up?

Have you ever felt that people like you but worry that no one will ever love you?

That sharing your true thoughts would be a worthless burden?

Have you ever felt like in this world it is not ok to be not ok?
And so you plaster on a smile every day and laugh away the pain?

Have you?
