My heart aches as it cries out for this thing called love.
Why, you ask?
It’s because I never had love.
As I observe those around me, they’re comforted by hugs.
I don’t have that feeling, but I wish I did.
I just drown in my sorrows and wish I was dead.
But I manage to pull through, because I know there’s love out there for me, too.
