Wounded Poem by Kelsey Gallant

If you don't like me, please just tell me
It would hurt less than sitting in silence wondering what went wrong
Maybe you just don't think I can handle anything
But I'd rather try and fail than never have the chance

Personality conflicts happen
Why should I want someone who doesn't want me?
But I just want to know where I went wrong
Because you seemed fine with it at first

For the first time in a long time I was feeling the excitement
I thought it would be great to have a challenge
I know you don't know me and you sure have me wrong
But I still can't help wondering if it was my fault

So now I can't walk past you without thinking about what I've lost
And now every time you see me you'll see the question in my eyes
Wondering how I messed up, and why you no longer like me
And the biggest, painful, open wound of "why? "
