The World Is Alone, Are You

I wish for a lonelier world out there
Just so I wouldn’t feel so alone
Life to be... forever ain’t fair
For even a self... you wouldn’t forever know

Would you dare to know yourself?
Perhaps better for friends to know you
Did you know friends you never can tell?
Did you know a self... only your friends knew?

There simply are too much
Too many human beings around
Ever lonelier to feel as such
With too much and never the one found

Its strange to feel lonelier
Given friends to have acquired
For many a times... no one is the better
A need be whence simply to be required

No one is to know another out there
No matter the friendliest, no matter the lones
If life as deem, as much as gifted as fair
A self perhaps... you wouldn’t wanna know
