Yet I Am The Rejected One Poem, by Soul Baby, at My poetic side

All I want is to be loved

By other humans,

My love for poetry is obscure

And it's okay to feel that way

For this world feels obscure...

I can't tell you the last time I was happy

And felt secure within myself,

Because there have been so many dark times

That took my joy

And my soul as well,

And no one really knows what I'm feeling inside

Because I don't feel anything right now

And I blame the world for taking my soul

For my soul was once valuable

I want to go home with God now

Where there's really peace on earth,

And I don't want to feel this pain anymore

And I no longer want to be

The rejected one.

Comment from author about the poem: I feel defeated, but I'm going to try to keep going. I'm going to try. A part of me wishes that I never existed, because living on this earth can be too much. I am a nice person with a heart of gold. Yet that doesn't seem to be enough. Sometimes I wish I can be mean and cold, but I can't find it in myself to do that. I long to feel whole again. I long to forget about my tumultuous childhood. I long for all this pain to go away. I just feel defeated every single day like a whole lot of people do. I keep getting rejected from job opportunities. Maybe I'm overqualified, maybe I just don't stand out anymore. I pray to God to take all my pain away. It just doesn't matter what I do in this world, I am always going to be scrutinized. No matter what I do, I get betrayed, stomped on, spit on...the list goes on and on. It doesn't matter anymore. It doesn't matter. I will always be the odd one out.
