Wrong
Amrita Gupta
Am I really fooling anyone?
Do I really look sad to you?
I bet you think I’m a freak
I don’t blame you
Should I blame you?
No
Whatever you thought about me
You were right
If you thought I was a freak
You were right
If you thought I was only good as a listener
You were right
I may give good advice
But I’m more than that
I have feelings, too
But whatever you thought
You had to be right
You had to be
Whatever feelings I have should be suppressed
If they don’t matter
They shouldn’t be brought up
They’re just useless
I have to repress them
Because if I were to say my feelings
I would just hurt myself
I can never be understood
I thought for a little while I could
Thought I could find someone
I loved being in love with
But I was wrong
There isn’t anyone
There’s no one that would love being in love with me
I can’t go on like this
I can’t be torn between right and wrong
Yes and no
Can I really be loved?
Or is it impossible?
Until I find the answer,
I’ll never be happy
