What I Want

I'm not sure how long ago this was written, but it's simplicity makes it just as applicable to recent years as much as high school and college.

More than anything in the world
I want someone to fall in love with me
Yet I go home each night
Lonely

Sometimes I want to cry
But it seems I've forgotten how
I may have cried too much
And emptiness is all that's left

I have loved many
Some I still love
I've shared many hugs
But have never held someone in my arms

My friends sympathize
Then go on with their lives
Some fall in and out of love so easily
All I ask for is a chance

I've waited many years
Yet still I have hope
More than anything in the world
I want someone to fall in love with me
