Do you know what it is Like

                                                Do you know what it is like to……….

Grow up being being an orphan…or to not have an actual family?

Do you know what it is like……..

To feel unloved by the ones whom are suppose to love you

Do you know what its like…..

Growing up being picked on due to my mental and emotional health

Do you know what its like to

Be the black sheep of a family

Do you know what it is like

Not feeling normal

Do you know what is like

Not feeling connected

Do you know what it is like

Not to want to live life

Do you know what it is like

To feel misunderstood

Do you know what it is like

To feel emotionally neglected, abandoned as a child

Do you know what it is like

When everyone turned their backs on you, when you needed them the most

Do you know what its like

To have your kindness token for weakness

Do you know what its like
to face extreme rejection from peers, family, friends, places, or jobs

Do you know what its like

To have poor self esteem as well as low self esteem

Do you know what it is like

Being alone and or lonely

Do you know what it is like

To be sweet, kind, and nice and then stabbed in your back or fire thrown at you

Do you know what it is like

Having emotional/ mental health problems and feel the world don’t understand or miss judge you

Do you know what it is like

To trust a friend or family telling them your business then them using it against you

Do you know what it is like  

To feel you can’t trust anyone

Do you know what it is like

To feel everyone is mean towards you

Do you know what it is like

To feel hopeless, hopeless, and unworthy

Do you know how it is like

Not to grow up with positive role models, good support systems, and or people who really care, love you unconditionally

Do you know what it is like

Having to care for yourself as a child, or be grown at an early age, and be out on your own

Do you know what it is like

For people to be so vile or evil towards you

Do you know what it is like

To have your kid taken from you by the state due to mental/emotional health reasons

Do know what it is

Like not to have a shoulder to cry on when you are hurt/ hurting

These are the things I been through, felt, witnessed, experienced, and currently still is facing. I write this poem for inspiration, encouragement, and to give the hopeless and the helpless to seek out help. Mental health is serious and please be nice to everyone because you never know what they have been through or feeling. Looks can be deceiving. If you know someone that feels these things help and be a friend to them. Its nothing wrong with being nice. I know can use this. Thanks in advance to anyone who reads this.
