I found the loneliest content person you will ever meet A man who acknowledges perfection, but doesn’t yearn for it A man who adores love, but only if its someone else’s He applauds from a distance as love rains all around him He avoids love as if it’s a cold he might catch He hugs himself to sleep, and kisses his pillow a wonderful night A sad tale indeed, but bliss in his own eyes Because he tried once, and love tore him to pieces, And he only healed, the day he fell in love with himself.

Bliss in solitude
I found the loneliest content person you will ever meet A man who acknowledges perfection, but doesn’t yearn for it A man who adores love, but only if its someone else’s He applauds from a distance as love rains all around him He avoids love as if it’s a cold he might catch He hugs himself to sleep, and kisses his pillow a wonderful night A sad tale indeed, but bliss in his own eyes Because he tried once, and love tore him to pieces, And he only healed, the day he fell in love with himself.
