nothing more

there is nothing more

that i want 

than to be happy

to be free

to be loved

nothing less

than i am now

mistreated

misunderstood

forced to never say anything

about how I've been doing

nothing more

nothing less

is that so hard?

Author's Note

so I've found someone that could really be my friend...and he just doesn't know...

that is sad, life is so short, there's so much to figure out, there's so much to do to try to counteract our own confusions, life is so infinite, I wish there was a rule book out there about things, not that there is not, but then again, I like making up the rules, maybe this friend out there has a different set of guidelines, some which interconnect or overlap and some that do not...it's awesome to find someone that could really be your friend

Thanks. He and i aren't exactly friends yet since I've not spoken to him yet, but he goes to my school and I'm friends with him on fb and we sometimes talk on there, i really like him but i haven't gotten to actually know him yet. i can just tell, tho...he and i hav a lot in common but it makes me so nervous thinking about speaking to him...:/

Learn to love yourself before others do. Life is tuff and companionship is tuff too. Find who you are first.

[Ian Gilmour]

Need for companionship is a loaded, extremely complicated topic, and in the simplicity of this poem, ironically we can explore that. Well done.

thank you again :)

Confidence is key, hold in there! It's always hard to find the one but then when you finally do you'll feel like you understand everything :)

I liked the poem. Honest and direct emotion. People do cry out for help in words and can hide their disappointment. Thank you for sharing the poem.

if only it were so simple .. great job working with an old cliche' .. making it personal and relevant .. it can be a terrifying thing to plunge trusting into something not guaranteed ..

Maybe it will slowly reveal itself. :)
Sounds promising.
