Why not me.
Look at them, they seem so happy

Hand in Hand, drowning in the endless pools of each other's eye

Oceans of euphoria, smiles real big
like a child watching fireworks

It's a look of joy, sheer bliss,
nothing could compare

Why not me?

I am here.
Do I not deserve this happiness?

A friend says, your day will come as they leave the room with their only one.
Maybe it will come, I cannot wait.
But do you want to know the truth?
My Soul?
It aches.
