Just Alone

Most days I am alone 
but every day I am surrounded by faces 
Some stop and say hello or ask about my day 
But why ask if you don't care?

Sometimes I will meet a man
Who makes me the apple of his eye 
He would fill my heart with ecstasy 
Then he will find my flaw, and away he goes 

I try to talk and laugh along with a crowd 
Only to get ignored 
The pain of rejection has been my roughest 
I often feel neglected and abandoned 

I have somewhat gotten used to this 
but I will always strive to make things different 
I often wonder what it's like to have friends 
I wonder what it's like to feel wanted..

Holy smokes Batman. We've got some pain and passion brewing here. Never knew there was so much sadness around till I came to this site. Ain't life a bear? Chin up :-)
