My Plight

My Plight

what is it i need to do
to be loved by you?
who is it i need to be
for you to be in love with me?
i try so hard, not to be strange
i have tried so much to make the change
why am i not accepted for who i am?
why is it that nobody seems to give a damn?
my feelings are so real
even when locked deep inside
why am i belittled
when i do confide?
is there anyone out there
who can tell me why I'm wrong?
can nobody give me the guidance
that I've needed for so very long?
maybe my idea of love
is nothing more than thin air
maybe all that say they do
do not actually care
shall i give up my almighty search?
call it quits as i fall from this perch?
no answers i can find
with my paper and pen
no amount of memory loss
will keep me from where I've been
the anger in me is so hard to subside
the rage takes over
the moment i tried
a plethora of dead emotions
in the wake of this plight
the fire in my heart
no longer shines so bright
again i ask-
what is it i need to do
to be loved by you?
