Live and Love

I never loved, nor did anyone to me
There is a hole where my heart should be
My life has been a simple mistake
To be unloved is only but aches
To love is to live
To love is to laugh
I wish to feel love, true love at last
The mature love you receive when you are his

My life is lonely, I have no one to hold
To be lonely is nothing one wishes to uphold
I do not live until love

For when that day comes where I am his
I will have the best love there is
I have waited, for much too long
So I wait until with who I belong
I live in hope of love
