I’m so used to it,
Rejection and denial.
Yet every time,
My heart is on trial.
I’m tired of loving,
Unloved in return.
And this bitterness,
Continues to burn.
Why did I ask,
I already knew.
But I hoped,
It could be you.
Still let down,
Story of my life.
Proof of dismissal,
Misery and strife.
Why am I alone,
Am I so unlovable?
I know I’m useless,
But is it so much trouble?
It’s pathetic,
How alone I truly am.
And sometimes,
I don’t give a damn.
I have feelings,
I am a human being.
You say you’re looking,
But you’re not really seeing.
“Don’t apologize”,
Sorry, but I must.
Despite my bad luck,
In men I continue to trust…
