Me When-

He wraps his arm around her shoulders,

She tells me all the sweet messages he sends to her,

He tells his friend how amazing she is…

I watch the way they look at each other with much love.

I should be happy for them, but sometimes I cannot help but wonder if it could happen to me too.

I was fine with being alone, but sometimes I cannot help but wonder if I am really that unlovable.


I want someone to think of me the way she thinks of him.

I want someone to talk about me the way he talks about her.

I want to know what it is like to love and to be loved.

I want to know how it feels like to have someone waiting for you.

Maybe love isn't for me right now.

Maybe someday I will get to experience this beautiful feeling soon.

But would that day ever come for me?
