• First Version:

    All I ever had was my words.
    I was never once lucky with the people I fell deeply in love with.
    I look at the starry skies
    It said that everybody finds love
    But it has been over 20 years.
    I never really searched, but found.
    I waited and waited and waited
    To never know what the feeling of hold hands could possibly mean
    I have never felt this lonely ever
    Was it because I disclosed too fast?
    Or was it that I presented myself that attracted the same sex?
    If my words could make you cry, then tell me why it dropped?

    Tell me why you don’t answer me.
    It’s been a while since we’ve talked.
    But you didn’t replied back.
    Do I make myself clingy?
    or did I really make you think that you are of worthy of having?
    I don’t know why I am not chosen.
    Could you enlighten me?

    Could it be that you’re the angel
    And I am the little demon?
    Did I not make your heart skip a beat at least once?

    It doesn’t make sense but I am the one who isn’t worthy of having
    I won’t forget you
    But I do know exactly where I stand with you
    I am not the Velcro that holds on tightly,
    I am the post-it note desperately clinging on.
    That itty bit of glue that still connects us two,
    It doesn’t even need to pulled
    It will eventually fall off
    And when that cold breezy day comes
    I will look at the starry skies
    And tell them,
    Not everyone will find love.

    2nd Version

    All there ever was, was words
    Never a chance in this game of boy meets girl.
    The starry skies
    Said that everybody finds love
    In 20 years
    Never searching, but really found.
    From waiting to waited
    To never know what the feeling of holding hands could possibly mean
    Never have the year felt this lonely.
    Was it because disclosure was fast?
    Or was it because the image of a man wasn’t represented?
    If just a few words took the tears to shed, why did it shed?
    Searching for the reason in the verb form of ignore
    3 months have passed
    With no results
    Because of a state of clingy
    or was value in worth wasn’t enough?
    Questioning the chances that was never received in this game of boy meets girl
    Enlightment is needed but never delivered

    Could it be that Heaven
    Never meets Earth?
    Why haven’t Heaven thundered?
    Like how Earth have quaked from it’s core?

    It doesn’t make sense but earth is unworthy of having
    It has not forgotten
    But in a clear vision gates are still insight from afar
    It is not Velcro that holds on tightly,
    It is post-it note that desperately clings on.
    That itty bit of glue that still connects,
    It doesn’t even need to be pulled
    It will eventually fall off
    And when that cold breezy day comes
    The starry skies
    Will have a new meaning,
    Not everyone finds love.
