Heartless World Poem by Sarah Shifflet

I'm just a harmless girl living in a heartless world.
I get put down everyday, sometimes people hurt me with the things they say. All I'm trying to do is be myself, I dont wish to be like anyone else.
Is it such a crime to want to feel good enough for once in my life?
Apparently this heartless world isnt a place to be, it seems damn near impossible to succeed. They say life is great, but to me this world is becoming nothing more than fake. How much more can I possibley take? I shouldnt have to live a miserable life, but in a hearless world where all you get is lies to you honestly expect a happy life?
