A chance

by SymphonyOfSilence

Why don't I get a chance? The lonely lost lover looking for a bit of romance. The poet, the writer, for love I am a fighter, I keep up my hopes, But the fire isn't brighter. It dwindles, Now I'm sinking so low, Been alone for so long, I don't even know where I'm supposed to go. And how am i supposed to know, If all I've seen is tv shows, And none of it has lead me down the right way. " You're a great guy," they say, Then why am I alone as these assholes walk away With a girl that they don't deserve, While I'm out here proving my worth. It's been 20 years. Never had a girlfriend. Never found love. Just fell in love. Had my heart broken. So many times I lost count. My friends cheer me on. I don't need false hope. I see all my friends with a smile on their faces, They found someone but I still don't know where my place is.
