Lonely Planet

In the silence of a crowded room,

Echoes are dancing, but you feel the gloom.

Every face is a stranger, wearing a mask,

Lonely thoughts, the only company I ask.

I walk these streets filled with shadows,

Smiles around me, but none to borrow.

Stars twinkle up in the midnight sky,

I’m just a comet passing by.

Floating in the void, a silent plea,

Wishing on a star, for someone to see me.

But galaxies apart, I drift away,

In this lonely planet, I’ve lost my way.

Lonely planet, can you hear my heart?

Cold as the space that keeps us apart.

Wishing on stardust, burning through the night,

Searching for a spark to ignite my light.

Then you appeared like a shooting star,

A beacon of hope, though we're worlds apart.

Your laughter felt like gravity’s tug,

Pulled me closer from this lonely shrug.

Wrapped in the warmth of your gentle embrace,

Every moment with you felt like a race.

But when you smiled, I’d pull away,

Fearing a fate that’d lead you astray.

Lonely planet, can you hear my heart?

Cold as the space that keeps us apart.

Wishing on stardust, burning through the night,

Searching for a spark to ignite my light.

Self-doubt whispers, “You’re not enough,”

Pushed you away when the times got tough.

You deserved the universe, bright and vast,

But I felt like a ghost, clinging to the past.

Lonely planet, can you hear my heart?

Cold as the space that keeps us apart.

Wishing on stardust, burning through the night,

Searching for a spark to ignite my light.

Now I'm lost in the echoes of what could have been,

Staring at a night sky, it’s my old friend.

Lonely planet, you taught me to see,

That loving myself was the first step to be free.
