hey you, girl or boy
laying in your bed
don't you feel the vastness
of loneliness in your head

no one to hold your body
or rub along your thighs
or whisper careless lovelies
through the deepest night

you and your body
a soul and a ship
lay under covers
with only your consent

try and scream a name
no one will come running
try and hurt yourself
no one will stop the bleeding

i suppose alone is beautiful
after all we're never paired
but doesn't it feel good to think
someone actually fucking cared

alone alone alone alone
laugh at us now
we thought we'd be together forever
but my tears have run out

you're all alone you see
just you and yourself
how does it feel
because i myself need help

—me myself and I !!!!!
