This poem describes my desperate search for true love. I really do feel this way right now, but hopefully my feelings will be changed next year when I start highschool. View table of contents...

I’ve been alone for most of my life,

With no one to love or hold on to.

Most girls by now have that special someone,

But not me.

I’ve experienced true love once,

But it ended in pain and hurt.

I’m yearning for someone special,

Someone to hold me tight.

I see all those movies,

Where the girl always gets the guy.

It breaks my heart,

Because I feel like it’ll never happen to me.

Almost everyone I know has really experienced love,

But I haven’t, not really.

My heart just feels broken,

Because I feel like nobody knows the real me.

Everybody just thinks that I’m a nerd,

Not a normal American girl.

All I do is study,

Never have fun.

I wish that they would look at the real me,

And see that I’m not what I seem to be.

Maybe if they did,

I could finally find true love.

I feel alone,

Not that I don’t have friends.

I want to be loved so much,

That it breaks my heart when I see couples.

Maybe the start of high school next year,

Will bring a brand new beginning for me.

I can be smart,

But yet be myself.

Maybe I’ll find someone special,

This coming year.

I hope I do,

So that my desperate search may end.

Yeah, that basically describes me,too. I'm known as the quiet, smart girl, so I'm hoping this year will be different since it's the start of highschool. I hope everything works out for you, too. I'm glad you liked it!♥

You sound exactly like me. I know how you feel. I'm a hopeless romantic, who only wants that feeling of being loved. I know it sucks watching everyone around you, and feeling like you have to change yourself just to get someone to notice. Sometimes it feels like who you are isn't enough, and that hurts. Like you, I don't want to settle, but it feels like being the nice, smart, loving girl isn't going to get it. Take it from someone who's been there, you sound like a girl who is very mature and deserves to find that amount of maturity in a guy. I'm a senior this year, and throught high school, I just found myself surronded by childish boys who couldn't handle a real relationship, not the kind I want anyway. When I go to college, I'm hoping to find a different breed, but if you go to the High School of Mature Young Men, then you've hit the jackpot! So don't measure yourself by how many boyfriends you have, that's not an accurate measurement, don't sell yourself short. Good job expressing your frustrations, I hope your writing has helped you, doing it helps me. Good luck!

Wow, you do sound a lot like me. I'm getting ready to be a freshman in highschool. I WISH there was a Highschool of Mature Boys(LOL). Most of the boys in my class are immature, and the 2 only mature ones I've dated, but it didn't work out so well. Writing helps me express my emotions greatly, so yeah, it did help me. Thanks!♥
