Am I Really Alone?

Have you ever felt alone?
Even when you're around people?
Lonely...
That's a feeling you get
when nobody or nothing is there.
Knowing that they love you
But you don't feel it
Walking around happy
But inside...
You're fighting vs. a mirror
Inner peace is easy they say
self love is the best love
Repeated them phrases so many times
to the point its manipulation
I manipulated you
I convinced your broken spirit
That you were healed
I made you think
That you loved yourself
You thought that you were good!
Ha!
Ha!
Ha!
Truth is...
You have always felt alone
