Rejected

Rejected

A Poem by Tori Jones

I'm cast out.
From my little world
From where once I blacked out
In my sphere of things no one cares
What I am thinking about

Love is overrated
And I'm unprivileged
As love is like a privilege
Hence most of us abuse it,
And I do not deserve it
For I have been fallacious
To be forgiven and forgotten

I'd like to be loved
But I have always been shoved
By the scars that burn my flesh
With exhausted memories that bleed afresh

You simply care
About nothing but yourself
And like a blunt knife,
I waited for you on the shelf.

You say things that burn a hole in me
You tell me to be
Someone I am not meant to be
You make me see things
No one should ever have to see

Why can't you be more caring
And just love me the way I am
Instead you just sit there staring
Pointing out my mistakes,
Taking me back to my past
And blaming me for how it all began.

Rejected and alone
I look for a home
I knocked on a door
That locked me to the floor.

Then you my father, took me in again.
Only to beat me and put me in pain.
For I deserve to be worthless
In this chained cage I feel hopeless

Having taken my last strike
I'm dying from being alone
My whole life disintegrating,
Into a substantial hole
Drifting into the unfathomed depths
From which cold darkness creeps.
Love is something that I'd love to keep
Then I'd have something to breathe 
And to live...

Okay with is very very deep and meaningful. You do put up a good case about love being undeserving
Well that's is true but as is so much other stuff but is does not matter all acts are selfish it's just life. Like me writing this review is me being selfish. Because I like this piece and want to voice that. So love no one deserves but we get it anyways so you should just accept you can't change you desires yo love and be loved. Why because deep down maybe very deep down you want to be loved because the way if feels. Thus it is your own desires that make you want it. But no matter what love finds all sometimes you don't see it till its to late or you hide from it but it still finds you. Most humans are one of two kinds of selfish the purely self care that means they only do things that benefit them then the selfish for ones self and may help others. Which is you help others to help your self everything you do is some how for your self. So yeah you are right but also wrong same with everything. This was a great peice. Yours truely a mad Lord

Love is only overrated if you make it that way. Love can be pure, sacred. It can heal, it can also break. Though, everyone deserves love. No one this planet is undeserving of it, no matter how evil the person is. If we can accept our downfalls, we can learn to get back up and find the light in us. Everyone has a light, even if dim. It's all a matter of discovery. ^ ^
