Love

Love
All I wanted is to be loved back
Why is it hard?
Everyday I’m drowning in my own thoughts
I’m thinking: “Do I deserve this?”
Being alone in a room triggers my anxiety
Why is it like this?
Why do I always end up alone?
I kept pushing away those negative thoughts
But they come back stronger, louder
How can I stop them?
All I wanted is to for someone to love me back
For someone to show effort that they want me
For someone to care for me
For someone who will always be there for me.
