Are You The One? Poem by Esperansa Rangel

I am a caring girl who needs to be cared for.
I wonder if there's someone out there who cares more about me.
I hear the sound of my heart beating hard and fast every time I see you.
I see what I like to see and that is you seeing the real me.
I want for to like me, for me and that is all!

I pretend to act like nothing has happened between us.
I feel like the darkness of hatred is breaking my heart into pieces.
I touch my heart to feel if it's still there.
I worry that the feeling of love won't be able to come back to me.
I cry when I go back to those memories we had together.

I understand that it will never be the same.
I say everything is fine, when it's not.
I dream that someday, someone like you will care more for me.
I'll try my best to become a butterfly and fly out into the sky.
I hope that someday you will look at me so that I could become free.
I am a caring girl who needs to be cared for, would you care for me?
