Alone

Alone in this world,
I'm not.
Alone in my heart,
I am.

Amazing friends are by my side,
But still,
There's no one to love me.

No one to hold me close,
No one to brag,
No one to tell me how special I am...
To them.

I may be young,
But I can still love,
Just like everyone else.
And it would make sense,
If I can love,
I can also be loved?

But no.
I am not lucky enough,
To know what it's like to be loved.
So I will wait.

Wait for my turn,
To be loved,
And then broken.

I have not been lucky so far,
I've mainly just been used.
Now I sit and wonder,
Will I ever find you?

The one who thinks I'm beautiful,
When I just woke up,
The one who looks at me every day,
Like he hasn't seen me in years.

The one who shows me off,
To all his friends.
The one who's not afraid,
To tell me he loves me over again.

The one who will keep me forever.
Instead of throwing me away.
I've trusted people like you,
Only to have them put me down.

They promised me they wouldn't...
I know the lies.
So don't even try.

But you.
I feel you're different.
And so,
I wait for you.

Just don't do something stupid.
Like they always do.

Fin.
