Acting the Part

she wonders
if maybe someday
she will have the chance
if maybe someone
will be blind to her flaws
if maybe something
will change
because right now
all people see
is the mangy, coarse beast
the horns, the claws, the tail
the things that get in her way
sometimes she feels so alone
this girl who never went to prom
this girl who never held anyone's hand
people think she's happy this way
they think she's happy alone.
I'm not, I never was.
she screams to the unconcerned,
to the unfeeling, to the crowd.
she just wanted to be liked.
she just wanted to be wanted.
that's all.
is that too much to ask?
