I just want to be loved. So much. I want people to remember my smile. I want to matter. I want people to be excited to see me, like I am to see many of them. Why does society have to make that so hard! We all want to be loved and/or respected! But instead of treating each other in such a way, we just hide it away. We go through our whole lives just waiting for those things to happen. Instead of just making new friends, finding people that care. We all pretend to be ignorant. The more I think about it, the more I ache. It’s in the music. It’s in the art. It’s everywhere. Many of us watch movies about families and marriages and babies, just so we can feel some artificial substitute of that love. It makes me shiver at night, as I fall asleep. It keeps me awake. Day after day. Night after night. Why do we do it? Why do we make it so hard for ourselves to love others and be loved. It’s the true completion of our souls. To be respected. To be admired. To be loved. But we live on, year after year, because we’d rather be afraid. We’d rather be torn. We’d rather be ignorant.
