All I Ever Wanted Was A Friend
Loneliness a disease that I tried to fight,
 An outcast I am hidden from sight. 
 Cursed and bullied for my existence,
 Hurtful words soar at my presence.
 A smile from a stranger I never received,
 Looking at my reflection no longer intrigued.
 An emotion that’s deeper than depression,
 Fixing my identity is my new obsession.
 Huger perishes as I look down at my plate,
 Strained and empty I’m bound in this crate.
 Daydreams, my only itch of happiness,
 To my diary all my heart ache I confess.
 My parents worry about my drastic change,
 They have no right, my life-my game.
 I glance at the scale, ten pound gone,
 That still not enough more must be done.
 Sleep deprived, my body weak,
 Why am I still labeled a freak?
 If I carry on I’ll meet my dead end,
 All I ever wanted was a friend.
