The Lonely Heart's Lament


Oh, unrequited love, a bitter pill to swallow

Yearning for affection, yet feeling so hollow

Days filled with longing, nights full of pain

With no one to hold, it's hard to remain sane


The heartache of unreturned love can be so cruel

Leaves you feeling like a hopeless fool

You try to move on, but it's easier said than done

When all you want is to be someone's number one


But love is not a game that can be won or lost

And sometimes the cost is a heart that's tossed

Into the sea of loneliness and despair

With no one to catch it, it's hard to repair


But take heart, dear one, for love may still be found

In the most unexpected places, it can abound

Until then, cherish the love you have for yourself

And know that someday, someone will love you like nothing else.
