i just want to feel loved,
is that too much to ask for?
i’m tired of this silence,
of staring at a closed door.

every day, it just repeats,
wake alone, no one to greet.
no kind words, no smiles to see,
just empty rooms and only me.

it drains my mind, it breaks me down,
this quiet life, this hollow town.
no touch, no voice, no reason why—
i'm left alone to wonder why.

am i really that flawed inside,
that love and warmth just pass me by?
am i too plain, too hard to see,
for anyone to care for me?

i dwell inside a silent prison,
not built by any hand or plan.
and every time i reach for light,
it slips right through, no second chance.

it drains my soul, it sucks me dry,
this empty space, these endless whys.
no hand to hold, no friend in sight—
just me alone, night after night.

i just want to feel loved,
but maybe that's too much.
i'd settle for a voice,
a gaze, a gentle touch.
