The Girl Next Door

A poem I wrote in my free time about the struggles of being LGB

The Girl Next Door

She is the girl next door

Everyday I dreamed of her

But I knew that she would never love me

No matter how hard I tried

I thought I knew why

I wasn’t pretty enough for her

I was too fat, too ugly

I needed to change

I pushed my limits

I tried so hard

But in the end

All I did was hurt myself

But when I was laying alone

In that cold hospital bed

She came to me and said

“I love you too…”

Awe, sweet ending. Made me feel sad in the middle when you wrote about how she didn't want you but then she came around.
