Do you ever feel like you've asked the world enough?

That you've wondered about it often

That when its a gloomy day and the weather is cool.... that you can't snuggle into someone arms

do you ever wonder if you will find love?

Do you ever wonder if this lonely feeling will go away or last for eternity

does it annoy you when you feel this way.

Questioning why you can't stop wanting another person

I mean, you have yourself

But

its not the same is it

no

There isn't someone to swoop you up and dance in the dark with outside on the back porch as a storm brews

The world is all sorts of messed up

believe me

but I know that you can't stop from feeling that way

I do too so I understand

I get it

but we have to remind ourselves that the world right now is contaminated not only with a virus but cruelness and loneliness and it has to take some time to heal

so don't sit and dwell on what you want but can't force

forcing it will result in the opposite

I tried that too

it didn't work

so take this time to just heal yourself

because we need to cleanse ourselves from this reliance that we have on other people and learn to love and rely on ourselves

we need to understand that we can be just as happy alone as we are with people

find a way and make it happen

dance in the rain with yourself

buy yourself flowers

become a beacon of happiness and people will find you

and if not then the time isn't right but I believe that things happen for a reason even if we don't always like the reason

so hold onto hope and love and become a brighter version of yourself

and when you feel alone remember you are not alone

even if the cashier smiles at you at the store or a stray animal comes and asks for pets that is still a sign that you are not alone even in this sea of lonely souls.
