IT HURTS


It hurts when you know you aren't who people think you should be,
When your efforts aren't enough,
When what you do isn't acceptable to them.

It hurts when people tell you what they don't like about you,
When they can't understand you,
When they think you're wrong because it's not what they believe.

It hurts when people you grew up loving aren't really who you thought they were,
When they say or do things that hurt you,
When you can tell by the look in their eyes that they don't want to understand you.

It hurts when you don't feel like you belong,
When everything you do isn't the "right" thing,
When all you want is to do your own thing, but others hold you back.

It hurts when you can't love yourself,
When others point out your flaws like you don't already know,
When you know what's wrong with you, but you don't have enough courage for the fight.

It hurts when you don't have the answers,
When you have too much pride to change in ways you know you should,
When you know you're going nowhere but you don't even care.

It hurts when you feel alone,
When it doesn't seem like anyone cares,
When you can't allow yourself to open up and let someone love you.

It hurts when you realize you're not the kind of person you wish you were,
When you have issues you have to work out that others just don't understand,
When the people you love the most can't understand you enough to help you.

It hurts when you realize that you're not as okay as you thought you were,
When what they said about you really is true,
When all you want to do is let your walls down but for some reason you can't.
