Pain

I gasp out in pain
An emptiness inside me
Every time I read of some happy couple
See one on TV, in movies, and in pictures
A little piece of me dies

I long for that
Happiness, love, a sense of security
I want to feel wanted
Is that too much to ask?

I feel like crying but I can't
I feel like my heart must be shattered
But it keeps on beating
Why doesn't anyone
Someone, want me
