My Poetry Book

Your Family

I was hopeful and ready
I wanted to meet your family
You and I wanted to go steady
Because our love was like a fantasy

But then I flew to meet them
Full of hope and glee
I quickly became glum
Because I realized I had nobody

Ignored and left alone,
I decided to just hang on my own

I spent the days reading and studying
Praying for an escape outside
But instead I stayed inside suffering
Because no one wanted to go for a joyride

Three days pass, three more to go
Out of books to read and things to see
Slowly losing my peachy glow
Wishing to simply be free

I still love you
To the moon and back
But I will always be back a degree
Because they wont accept me in your family pack

I guess its something I'll have to accept
It just makes me sad
That to your family I'm inept
But as long as I have you I'll be glad.

They will always be your family
Never mine
I will always be the anamoly
But with you I'm sure I'll be fine.
