The lonely boy

I loved you at first sight,

As you walked by that night,

I thought I’d never see you again,

But I couldn’t say amen…

Then the next day I saw you,

You walked by and made your debut,

I asked if you lived nearby,

And you responded, why?

I said because you’re like a jewel,

So precious to me; a poor fool,

You are no poor fool you said,

Just a lonely boy instead…

I invited you for some coffee,

But you played possum with me,

I thought you were different I said,

And I couldn’t get you out of my head…

From the first time I saw you,

My thoughts I couldn’t construe,

I prayed I’d see you again,

And maybe every now and then…

I just want to know you better,

But you just ignored me and said never,

I said why and you said goodbye,

I felt I just wanted to die…

But I still see you around,

You look at me and frown,

I think why and I just don’t know,

A lonely boy’s heart will never glow…

For all the lost loves and the lonely souls….
