  What do u do when there's no1 at all?
  All ur friends r out & there's no1 2 call
  What do u tell urself when u're by urself?
  Do u wonder, 'Why?' & say, 'There's gotta b a better way'
  The holidays r tough 2 bare & the lonely nites r worse
  So u pray, 'God, when will u lift this devil's curse?

  The love of a son or daughter is great. Il est merveilleux.
  It cannot b compared or measured 2 another.
  But now u yearn 4 that love, that joy & happiness from a
  significant other.

  Wait a minute! Is my pager on? Is my phone still hooked up?
  Not a beep or ring in days [what the fuck]
  I must admit, I do enjoy the down time
  U know, flow solo, gather my thoughts & stuff
  But this is ridiculous

  I want some1 2 share the sunsets & watch the moon rise
  I want 2 c the stars twinkle n the sk'...n her eyes
  Venez mon chéri. Venez mon amour.
  Let's face the joy & pain 2getha.
  Tread the deepest ocean. Yes we can.
  Vous et I toujours

BEHIND THE WORDS

  I completed this piece in about 1 hour during an “open mic” nite
  session at college. After I heard several love poems about 'missing
  each other', 'loving each other', & 'being 2gether', I was nspired 2
  write from the other point of view. The point of view of the lonely
  heart. I’ve had my share of loneliness, so I reflected on those times
  & the words came 2 me with ease. Any1 who has ever loved & lost
  can definitely relate 2 what I’m saying.
  NOTE: Love DOES NOT hurt. People hurt people [sad but true].
  Love is a beautiful thing. There is some1 for every1.
  Keep looking 'til u find the right 1 for u. Don’t give up on love.
  Now u know what’s BEHIND THE WORDS…1LOVE
