Somebody’s somebody

I once was nobody

And I had nobody

And it seemed like everybody had somebody

And all I really wanted was to be somebody’s somebody

And I wandered and struggled through this world to be somebody

But I still felt like nobody

Until that summer when I met you

And you became my somebody

And I became your somebody

And I never wanted nobody else but you

And for two decades

Our bodies became like one body

But then one day you treated me like a nobody

And I was no longer your somebody

And all I really wanted was to be somebody’s somebody

And you to be my somebody

And me to be your somebody

Somebody

And you gave yourself away

To some other somebody

And now more than ever I feel like a nobody

My loneliness, at times, overwhelms my body

Because all of us only want,

Just,

To be somebody’s somebody

And all I really wanted was to be somebody’s somebody

And you to be my somebody

And me to be your somebody

Somebody

And I feel like nobody’s somebody.
