Lovers, others, and the whole damn world, anyone who is not alone that has someone; I envy them. Sampling Envy… where would we be without it, if anything I am still alone watching everyone else, I only wish I could sample something else.

Even if I were able
No I was labeled
Violent and unstable
Yearning

Ever so much
“Never in the butt”
Very well and such
Young love

Excited to see
Nope not me
Valentine to be
Yikes

Every time I know
Needing but so
Valueless the word no
Yes I shall go

Enough of dreaming
Nefarious screaming
Vauntingly terrifying
Yet I’m thinking

Such want, need, desires
Are fodder for liars
Maybe I should aspire
Perhaps aim higher
Lost though in the fire
Enamored I shall never tire

    This is a great poem, and if it does reflect on how you feel then that is sad but don’t look at people and think their lives are happier than you or that they are so much in love, remember your eyes only see people happy for that split second doesn’t mean they are happy all the time. No need to envy you are unique and you will find someone one day that will fit like a glove :)
