A Poem by Chained Potential

To find love
one must
love
at least
thats what they say
But sometimes I wonder
do they really believe
do they 
understand
what they are saying
Ive loved and loved
and recieved little
in return
Ive walked my life
alone
I was broken
and then 
ignored
No one
ever 
took an interest 
in me
I had no authority figure
No one
I could trust
No one
ever
bothered
to care
to make an effort
Alone
I have loved 
many
But at the end
of every day
I remain
Alone
I feel
Broken
worthless
tired
I love
I give
I am kind
generous
I sacrifice
for others
All these things
I can do
for others
but not 
for myself
no one
has ever 
bothered
to show me
how
