Lonely

 

You all ask me,

'Who am I ?',
Not 'How am I?'.

You just see my face,
Not my hobbies.

With a tear in my eye,
I went to hear,
The chirp of my bird,
Who flew above me,
Ignoring me.

Today I realised,
I was lonely,
I am lonely,
But maybe I can change my future.

Hear everybody,
"You didn't reject me,
I rejected you.
You didn't make me lonely,
I made myself lonely.
You invited me to play at night,
But I stared at the shimmering stars bright.
And we'll see who will be,
how much successful in the future,

And at that time,
You'll all ask me how am I,
Not who am I."
