    This is a very beautiful poem. I can see where the sadness comes from though. We all fear to be who we really are. And everyone says that they can change the world. No one person can do that but one person can do a small part. The world nowadays definitely needs more love. I loved the message you were trying to say. I really loved your last stanza. You want to give your love as much as you can even though you are fighting your own battle. You are stronger than you think you are and very courageous to be yourself when society says differently.

      Thank you :) In this case, I'm more trying to get away from who I am. I'm in the process of being a better person. Being less hateful and mean to people. I do enjoy it, at times. But sometimes I feel bad after too. I'm aware that I can't fix it. I know I can make a difference, for some, in places, but the world is bigger than one person. Thanks. I do still want to make others happy, even if I can't do it for myself. Yeah, so I hear, but I'm on the edge of giving up again. The more I try to be me, the more people encourage it, the more I find there isn't a place for me here.
