All I ever wanted

All I ever wanted was to love someone and be loved in return

But that idea had quickly crashed and burned

My fragile glass heart can only take oh so many bumps on the road

It has been Strong for so long but it is about ready to explode

All I ever wanted was a family filled with love, support and hope

But what I got was a family filled with hate, opposition, and despair

What I sadly call "home" is an emotionally broken place

Which among many other obstacles i as a teenager must face

All I ever wanted was to have friends to be there when I needed them

But instead i got enemies who stabbed me a million times and then left me with my wounds spiritless

These wounds have since filled me with animosity that has taken over my life

This overwhelming revolt within me has depleted my self-esteem and discouraged my vitality

All I ever wanted was to live a life pain free and be satiated with joy

But isn't that what everyone wants?

There is nothing wrong with not getting everything you want

But there is something wrong with not getting anything at all.....
