Poetry

so here's a little poem I got inspired to write, if you want to know the reason for it, just pm me!! :D
Here we go:
Acceptance
If you don't accept the friends I have
or the people I hold dear,
How can I expect you to accept me
even when they are not near?

If you don't accept the way I look
or the clothes I choose to wear,
How can I expect you to accept me
when my face is UN-made-up and bare?

If you don't accept the books I read
or movies that I love,
How can I expect you to accept me
if what I like is not enough?

How could I possible accept you
if you can't accept me?

Is it even worth the trouble
to change my ways,
to warp my views?

And spend the days
with someone who only wants me
to change me,
to mold me into theirs?
I don't think so.

Perhaps this is how you go along,
a leech clinging to whatever flesh is in season.

Perhaps that's how you live,
in a world of false truth
that desperate people give.

But, me, I'd rather not.
For me, it's not about the amount of friends I've got,
it's about accepting others
and praying they'll accept you.

And if they don't?
Just forget them all.
Hold close to those you have
and help them when they fall.

here's another I just felt like putting together :D :
Searching For Friendship

Were you always out there,
somewhere in the crowd?
Were we always calling,
calling each others names out loud?

Were you waiting,
waiting in a long row?
Were you trying to find someone,
someone to get to know?

Were you ever wondering,
when would they arrive?
Were you ever thinking,
will they help me come alive?

Were you also searching,
searching for someone new?
Because I know that I was searching,
searching for you.
