I am like everyone else
I want love
I want to be needed
I want to matter in someone else’s life
But is the heartache and tears
Worth the struggle
Or am I just the abnormal one
Who finds more work than support
Sees more take than give
Feels more hurt than help
In every chance I’ve had at love

Beautifully written. We all want love and affection.
Thank you … yes we do.
You’re welcome 😉
A great response for the prompt. It is beautifully written with plenty of emotion. I really loved this one.
As for the narrator’s thoughts, perhaps tears and pain are all part of the process. But I do know this, we all deserve love, affection, and companionship.
Thanks so much for your beautiful comments. I agree that we deserve all three of those things… hard to find someone who will be willing to share that much.
