Part 28: The Warmth that won't come

Some days I wonder, 

When will arms hold me close,

and tell me I'm okay?

When will someone see my imperfections,

and not grimace in disgust?

When will I stop feeling so cold,

knowing warmth will not arrive?

When will someone show me,

that maybe I'm not completely broken?

When will the pools of tears,

stop mocking me in the mirror,

showing me my weakness?

When will this desire start to fade,

for someone,

anyone,

to love me,

despite my imperfections,

and impurities,

and 

my absolute worthlessness?

When will there be a person,

someone here for me,

during times of trial,

and times of pain,

and times of longing,

for them to be here,

and show me, that

they love me?
