Loneliness

Loneliness

I feel so lonely
I hunger for love
That special someone
Seems so elusive

I feel an emptiness within me
Romantic songs bring pain
Happy couples bring a sadness
A hollow feeling is inside me

I long to feel the closeness
That special connection
When two hearts
Think as one

The hugs
The special looks
Just knowing you are loved
And loving in return

I thought I had found it
But I was wrong
The feelings turned out
To be just mine

They say love is wonderful
Love feels great
All I've ever gotten so far
Is a lot of pain

Is he out there?
Is he wondering where I am ?
Surely I am not the only one
Who feels this way
