What does it mean to be lonely?
It is when you cannot express what you deeply feel,
like a dried up old fruit so difficult to peel.
What does it mean to be lonely?
Having so many around you and forcing a smile,
when you feel they cant really see you all the while.
What does it mean to be lonely?
Laughing the loudest and trying to be nice,
just hoping to be accepted whatever your vice.
What does it mean to be lonely?
Never convinced you belong anywhere,
irrespective of what you might see or hear.
What does it mean to be lonely?
Feeling so tired of feeling this way,
not able to say things that you want to say.
What does it mean to be lonely?
It is knowing you are condemned for what you feel,
and fighting to stay on an even keel.
That's what it means to be lonely!
