I Am a Human Being

I am not an inanimate object,
so don’t treat me like one.
I cannot be broken in to a million pieces,
but I can feel like I have been.
I experience feelings;
sadness, anger, excitement, happiness.
I’m not here for your amusement
or pleasure.
I can be lost
and never found,
if you let that happen,
but I cannot be replaced,
so don’t try.
I know how it feels to be hurt
and I know how it feels to be loved.
Don’t take either of those away from me
by treating me like I don’t have feelings.
They make me who I am.
I would think that you’d understand where I’m coming from, considering.
Do not act like you can place me on a shelf
and forget about me
while I collect dust.
I won’t be there for you to dust me off
and use again.
I deserve better.
I know how to cry;

how to smile.

Laughter comes naturally.I’m not some robot,
just going about my business,
unable to learn;
unable to feel.
I am a human being,
so treat me like one.

To Whom it May Concern

My thoughts
are jumbled and
I can't figure out what
exactly I feel and
what I need to say.
I have never been more
confused.

It shouldn't have happened.
I don't know what I was thinking.
There are no regrets,
but maybe there are.
Everything happens for a reason,
but maybe it was simply a mistake.

I'm afraid of what's to come now.
I feel that hurt is close.
I can't
sort out
what I feel.

Sadness
Happiness
Loneliness

My thoughts
They're
Mixed up and
Messed up
They have no
End
