Story of my life...

Open Heart

by Kris Lynn

If life's so full of changes,
Why does it always stay the same?
I wanna get out, I cry for freedom,
but I'm stuck in this place I hate.
It's the Truth she's against,
but it's me that she's trying to break.
She is blind to the fact
that our friendship is at stake.
I put myself down,
cuz that's what I've come to know.
If these things aren't true,
then why does she tell me so?
She ridicules, she brings me down,
My emotions run on high.
To the point where in my mind,
I think of taking my own life.
I fight myself and flush the pills,
but then hate myself still, even more.
How could I have come to this place
I've never been before?
Even to this day these thoughts
still enter into my mind.
There's days when I look in the mirror,
and hate is all I find.
Thoughts run through my head:
"I'm beautiful. Why can't anyone SEE?
Will I go through this life without
anyone to love ME?
"I'm searching for someone to love me,
JUST the way I am.
I need someone to listen,
but also understand.
I know that I am young
and have so much more to learn,
But I want someone to HOLD me,
yes this is what I yearn.
All of you cynics out there,
I won't mention any names.
You are probably laughing,
'cause you think that I'm insane.
But YOU grow up without hugs and kisses,
and tell me YOU don't want,
Someone who will hold you tight,
and tell you that you're loved.
