I don't know why
I feel the way I do.
The reason for my tears
Remains a mystery,
Even to me.

Pain,
Longing,
Heartbreak,
Or Emptiness .

Love travels the world
Searching for a host.
But mine remains absent
And I sit here dreaming.

Wishing for a chance.
Hoping for someone
To show me everything,
Everything I live without.

Love's darkness casts its shadow
Over my craving, ravenous heart.
And I lie in its wake
Waiting to be free,
Watching the world outside
And its people be loved
Give love,
Feel love,

Fantasizing of my time
When luck falls into my grasp.
And I too,
Share the cruel, magical phenomenon
That we call love.
