couldn't be me.
all of my friends have had it except for me
just seeing their smiles plasted on their faces is proof enough to see
as they tell me about it through text i smile for them
but a frown on my face also stems
cuz i know ill never get to expearence it myself
ill never know how it feels to smile like that
to have a mutual feeling, a connection
ill never know how it feels for someone to love me.
