I apologize

being bullied and disliked

Sorry if I found out,
I was oblivious at first,
You were calling me names,
And talk behind my back every time.

Sorry if I'm not a person likeable,
I can't change that fast,
And I don't want to change for you,
Because I feel unfair.

Sorry if I displease you,
I cannot be what you want me to be,
I didn't wish to know the truth,
Because I don't want to be hated.

I cry every night,
Wishing that everyone should just accept who I am,
I want to be accepted.

This simple wish,
I know it might not come true,
So, God please help me.

Author's Note

I am so-so right now, both optimist and pessimist(: Writing helps always

This poem makes me mourn for all those who have been bullied or hurt by all the pathetic people who think they are above everyone else. It's hard to be optimistic when the world is as filthy as it is.
They say keep your friends close and your enemies closer, but I don't agree with that. I'd say keep your values close and God closer.
Deep poem you have here.

thank you for the review... that's right I can't agree with keep your enemies closer also... (:

A praying pessimist. Now that's a combination for contemplation. Could this be a koan of sorts? Nicely written all the same! :)

Thanks for reviewing, dude *v*

That feeling of being wanted is most common. I guess some people don't care. Your feelings within this piece is greatly felt. On Facebook there's a page called "I Oppose Bullying." After one girl, that I was an acquaintence of, committed suicide, one of her closest friends shared the page... This great piece is great because of the meaning behind the words (well isn't all the great ones?)

[Rhianne Ney]

Yeah, I agree (:

[Blue Lotus]

I really truly feel for this piece! and i think acceptance starts with self..
that is why my favourite line is this...
And I don't want to change for you..
