September 15

I wrote this September 15th and I forgot about it. I love expressing myself through poetry, so I thought I would share it.




Every time I think I’ve finally found love it leaves. I hate that you notice me. It makes me think we could be. I want to be the one you want. Not the one you settle for. I just don’t think I’m pretty enough to be with you. I’ll probably never be skinny or find someone who sees me as beautiful the way I am. How could someone love a big girl in a small world? As you leave, I mourn the loss of this chance. I mourn the time wasted once again. I wish there was hope for me but it’s just never worked out. 25 and never been on a real date. Never been kissed. Never been told how beautiful I am by the one I love. I don’t want you to have pity on me; I just want you to fall in love with me. Just for once. I don’t want to give up on love but I feel it has given up on me.


Have you given up on me love?
Cause I’m giving up on you.
I just can’t leave my heart wide open
To dreams that don’t come true.

I want to live my life without worrying if you’ll ever knock on my door
I guess I’m not meant to have the only thing I’ve ever wanted
It would be different if you were the only one who told me this
Ten years later and still I’ve never been kissed
Love you let me down so I’m walking out
I’m building up my walls now I can’t keep letting strangers in.

Is there not one I value who values my heart?
Who loves my time?
Who thinks I’m beautiful?
I guess not.
