I was standing there waiting… For someone like you to appear No one did, Because I am nothing. And no one did Because I am doomed To be alone forever… To never find anyone like you again. And I'm sitting here thinking… That it's okay to be let down. It's okay, Because I deserve it. And it's okay That I deserve it, Because that's the way things are… Because that's the way things will always be. Written October 12th, 2001 © on Dec 28 2001 07:38 AM PST    18 • 0 • 8
