Blog Entry: Lonely Maybe

Lonely Maybe It's easy to feel lonely in my corner of Texico, but sometimes it really gets to me.

I shouldn't be bitching and whining; I ain't no saint. Sometimes though, it makes me feel better to be sad. I'm tired of always having to be strong and always smiling when all I want to do is cry.

Everyone assures me I'll be successful in my career endeavors. I want to scream that they don't know that.

Everyone assures that I'll find a husband who'll love me forever someday. Truthfully, I'd rather have someone to hold me now.

Everyone assures me I'm not ugly. Yet in a culture riddled with vanity and narcissism, I'm hideous.

I don't want pity, I want company. A friend. That's what I'll look forward to, because the future scares me too much.
