Gaara's Poem

No one understands me
They say I'm deranged
They're the ones who caused me to be this way
A so-called monster, a freak,
All I ever wanted was to be loved or maybe even accepted
But no matter how hard I tried I was always shot down

For every pointed finger came cold accusations
My mind told me they were lying
But with time, their repetition made me think it was true
So the only one love I recieved came from myself
The reminder of my apalling lonliness

I can't remember the last time I smiled out of joy or true happiness
All I smile from now is my own sadistic humor
My eyes have grown cold from the harsh realities of this cruel world
But even still, I can't help but feel the innocent child I once was inside me sobbing
Wanting nothing more than to be loved.

End
