Not Enough
Their hand slaps me and tells me not to indulge in the popcorn, I'm not paying for it.
The depressed people says I am too naive.
Atheists say I'm stupid for believing in fairytales.
Christians say I just need faith.
How can I truly deal with this pain...
If I knew there was truly nothing after I die, I would have killed myself.
I do not need to love when everyone gets their cake,
and I get a crumb,
and I'm told I'm selfish for that crumb...
Even if those who need my voice,
it still doesn't feel like enough.
It's a pat on the shoulder,
but not an intimate kiss
not a "I'll never let you go."
I still wonder why I am here,
in a world where I must hide
my love for a boy
that everyone told me was bad.
This world is nothing to me.
Always has been, always will be.
