He sought to be the definition of perfection.
He wanted to be the golden child.
The child who could do no wrong.
Sadly, that wasn’t the case with him
He had his friends and family, yet
he still felt out of place.
He felt like a last resort.
He didn’t feel wanted.
He knew that he had it all.
His loved ones saw him as a hero.
Others saw him as the villain in the story.
The one who destroys the world.
The other kids constantly teased him.
They never let him join their games.
All he wanted was to feel accepted.
To feel like he belonged.
For most of his childhood, he was an outcast.
He never had a chance to fit in.
He was called “weird” and “different”
The words cut deeper than a knife ever could
One day came where he had enough.
He didn’t want to feel left out anymore.
He wanted to get rid of his pain.
He wanted to see darkness in his future.
After the thoughts and attempts, someone came forward.
Someone gave him what he was searching for.
She saved him from the dark void of his future.
She gave him love and acceptance.
Years pass, and he is now in college.
He has friends and family supporting him.
He finally feels the happiness he deserves.
He finally feels like he belongs.
