" I've always had a  terrible weakness for beautiful but sad things"

-Unknown


I've always known I was weak,

But seeing the look in their eyes,

The disgust,

It broke me in ways I never thought it could,


Because all I ever wanted was to make them proud for once in my life,

But once again I messed up,

It was and still is all I'm ever going to be good at,

I know I've never done anything to deserve your love


I deserve those looks I get,

But I just want love,

I know I'm hard to love,

I know I'm hard to be around,


I mean I wouldn't want to be around me too,

But the thing I stayed when they couldn't,

I wiped my own tears, pulled myself up when I felt worthless,

And that's how I know I'll be ok maybe not now,

But I will be.
