[hometext] => I wrote this months and months ago and just came upon it yesterday. It's about seeing the dark part of yourself in someone else and realizing just how ugly it is.
[bodytext] => I only wanted to feel wanted A little bit of romance is too much to ask for I only wanted to be really loved I guess I can't ask you to hold me in the morning I only wanted your attention But I don't deserve to feel more than invisible I only wanted to be happy But I can't seem to go a day without crying I can't not care And I can't not be who I am I can't shrug it off I can't help hating you for what I am I shouldn't blame you But I can't accept it's my fault Something's wrong with me I know I only feel the way you feel I can't put up with the things you do But why can't you put up with the things I do? I don't know what to do with these feelings I don't know what to do about all these tears I only wanted to know myself I only wanted to learn how to love somebody I only wanted to be there for you I only wanted the strength to handle anything It's not easy To face the dark side of myself In someone else And realize how much I hate myself Sometimes it hurts To see you do the things I do And turn away Then realize I turned from me somehow 'Cause I only hate you when you act like me When I know too well why you do what you do It shouldn't be so easy to feel this way But you'll never understand why I got so angry You can't discern between the good and the bad The evil in her is the evil in me You say there's no comparison between us Which is why you must really hate the evil in me And I think I'm losing because I can't find the good anymore [comments] => 2 [counter] => 180 [topic] => 32 [informant] => MoonlitAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 13 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )
