Happy Birthday to me
31 years today

No one to hug or love
And I guess that
Will have to be okay

Walking off
On some mountain trail

The world is just so big
So far away
Far away
Far away from you

And it's a shame
Because just one
Small hug would do

No one to meet
No one to hug
And so I walk alone

And so I write these poems

Planet earth bores me
And the whole life
Experience too

Just keep on keeping on
That's all I am
Left to do

I wish for my birthday
A woman here
Would say, "I love you"
This poem is about the human need to feel close or cared for by another human being.  Something I have never experienced.
