I want to feel like someone loves me.

It seems like a simple human right

That I just can't seem to claim.

Love is linked to happiness

Which explains why I'm miserable.

I don't want a boyfriend just to say I have one.

I just want someone to bring me joy.

I want to feel like I matter.

I want someone to make me smile.

I want someone to care about me

Because I'm tired of being the only one.

It exhausting telling myself each day

That life is worth living

When the list of reasons just gets shorter.

I need someone to make me feel

Like I'm not alone.
