being alone is not foreign to me

I've known it for as long as i could breathe

I've loved and lost

I'm sure we all have

but why does being alone

make us so forgone?


hands intertwined and lips locked

makes you wonder why love is so sought

time and time again

i fail at this game

what are the tricks to make him stay?


i don't mind being alone

trust me, it's true

i just wish a part of you

wanted me too


being on your own makes you think

that every single boy was just a faded dream

i hope some day someone will love me

and think of me as a forever thing


you have to kiss a lot of frogs

until he turns into a prince

if at all

sometimes i feel like I'm wasting my time

on a pipe dream that won't come to life

everything seems so out of reach

except the love i have for me


one day he will appear

in front of me

so clear

but until that faithful day

the love i have for myself

will never fade
