Looking in the mirror
I see whyI am on my ownYou only haveTo see the
Reflection Old age shows soSuitcases areUnder my eyesWelled with tearsOf sadness of joySo full of loveBut no oneTo see But I loveMy smile You seem so busySo self absorbedI understand thisMaybe I am tooSometimes youLet me in I go to sleep aloneI wake up aloneWhy?I cry out for loveTo be lovedTo loveTo be held Biological yesI am femaleBut I want to knowWhat it is to feelLike to be aTotal woman Waiting for loveI am told thatI am a wonderfulWoman that I amBeautiful too. Talented in many waysWhat is the good of this?When you are left aloneThere is no one to see Am I being selfish?Am I being soSelf absorbedToo! All I haveis questionsNo answers Imperfect soul am ISo many shadesOf blue So many starsOut tonightMy starlightSerenade
