Loneliness

I am in a full room with familiar faces but I am alone 
I look on every face and none of them are you  
I smile to keep everyone happy but I am so sad on the inside 
I am so alone, so hollow, so unhappy 
I just want to survive this crowed room
I hate pretending I am okay 
I see couples holding hands and I keep wishing it was us 
I keep wondering why god didn’t work his magic on us    
I am so alone; this loneliness is so unreal 
I keep wishing I could roll back time, I just want back that moment we kissed 
The wickedest thing in life is to live an empty life, wanting something you can’t find
