Love and Hope....


Love? Does it exist, Or is it a word used much to often, With no actual feeling behind it? Like when someone says I love this song, Or when someone says I love you… Now maybe it’s true, Like when your parents say it to you, What about that boy, Who said it much too soon, Who didn’t really mean it, Who left you for that girl… You thought she was prettier, You didn’t need that love, but did she? There are people who need that love…. People who need hope…. I have a loving, caring family but I still feel empty… Like no one cares….. Like no one knows me….. Like no one likes to listen….. Like no one is there for me…... I might need some hope but so might she…. So maybe I shouldn’t take love or hope…. But maybe neither should she. You compare yourself to her…. The girl who has beauty…. Who has money…. Who has mommy and daddy…. You have mommy and daddy but it’s not the same…. They do everything for her…. Your parents do as much as possible My parents might need hope….. I don’t show them enough love…. I try to give my love to someone else….. Someone who doesn't need it…… Someone who doesn't want it……. My parents might need love…… So you see I guess I can't take love or hope because I'm not the only one who needs it. So I guess I would take my dog.
