I am sad and lonely
But who wouldn't be?
In this state
I'd rather not say
Alive but barely living
You could say
They chose me
I have no choice
Will there be a day
That I can be free?

It's hard to fall for someone
Never knowing
If they'll catch you
So you fell hard and flat
Onto the floor
Still lucky
The floor was there
To save you
And a wake up call
To never fall again

Why is it so easy
Easy to fall
For the wrong one
Yet, there are many
Who are right for me?
Why do I always fall
Fall for the wrong one?

I can easily forgive others
I love being around them
Make them laugh, if I can
Lend a hand if needed
And always listen
And all these years
Im still left wondering
Is there some love left
For someone like me?
Can I ever love myself
Like I ever loved others?
Will I ever listen and care
As delicately and passionately
As I would with others?
Perhaps, neglect is the perfect word
A word that best embodies it
Neglect to what is needed
What I am craving
What I've been longing
From what I thought
I could get from others
Is already within me
Only failing to realize
That loving me
Is not an option
But a must

People say
Love is blind
But I am blind
To the truth
In front of me
I can see through my eyes
But can't see the truth
In front of me
Love isn't blind
But I am

You were there,
always by my side
Never doubting
You'll leave my side
But a raindrop fell
And I reached for your hand
But you were gone
Nowhere to be found
Echoes heard
Instead of answers
In an instant
You were gone
Leaving me thinking
Why?

It's a shame
We end it this way
But still happy
I ended up this way
We may never met
And just part ways
But I'm grateful
For meeting you
Along the way
Learn't a few lessons
That'll last more than a day
