Welcome to my Life

Just something came up with...

My life is not awful 
Not full of abuse
So why do I feel
All of this hate?

I have the perfect family
A mother, father, brother, and pets
So why do I feel
This pain inside me?

I have friends that support me
Make me laugh and smile
So why do I feel
Like I'm about to cry?

I have no problems at school
Smart and relatively liked
So why do I feel
Like I'm alone.

I have a great life
Great future
So why do I feel like
I don't have a life at all?

I can be smarter 
Prettier
Thinner
Better...

I have a great life 
Perfection almost
So why do I feel
Like I don't belong there?

Because I think its natural to be torn as we mature. To desire what we don't have. or even to feel like because we have so much we don't deserve it when others have it much worse. But in reality. Its possibly more because you are looking for something you've yet to find... an identity? purpose maybe?...

insightful write.. there's much to be learned from this poem. thanks for sharing
