LONELY (Melissa)
One thing that Melissa was certain of was the fact that she was not the victim, no, she refused to be the victim, In fact, she believed that she was anything but the victim.
While growing up, she knew that many believed that she had it all _she had whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted but only she knew that it was all false or maybe some parts were true. All she ever wanted was to live a simple lifestyle, her mother's love, family members caring for her, and good friends who love her unconditionally, but no, none of those ever came through, no matter what she did, she ever fitted in. She was either expected much from her or pushed aside when they thought that she had no value.
With a delightful smile, she was always able to mask her hurt whereas deep within she was slowly breaking apart. And each time the world reminded her of her reality, she could not help but cry herself to bed, not because she was weak but because she felt overwhelmed. She believed that she would one day look back at these days of her life with a smile on her face however her life turned out to be, and even if that day never came she hoped that someday she would be just fine.
