Lonely Hearts in Crowded Places

Scrolling through my phone,

Just a single soul, alone,

Every swipe feels like a step,

But it’s all just a blind stretch.

Coffee shop conversations,

Love stories in the air,

Two hearts laughing, while I sit there,

Just a shadow in the glare.

I see the posts, it’s sweet and quaint,

But the longing burns, a slow, dull ache,

Profiles line up, but none come through,

Am I chasing dreams or running from the blue?

Oh, it’s a crowded room with lonely hearts,

Weaving through the smiles, yet feeling worlds apart,

Dating apps and digital fate,

Searching for love, but it feels like a weight.

Glimpses of laughter in pictures they share,

Parading bright dates, but I’m unaware,

All the questions and an empty reply,

I’m just a king without a queen to try.

Scrolling through the choices, but they lead to dust,

Chasing something real feels like a weary rust,

Every coffee date feels like a tease,

Hoping that someday, my heart will find ease.

Oh, it’s a crowded room with lonely hearts,

Weaving through the smiles, yet feeling worlds apart,

Dating apps and digital fate,

Searching for love, but it feels like a weight.

Maybe I’ll dance to this song alone,

Find joy in the moments, carve out my own,

But the whispers of love, they echo and hum,

Is it too much to think I’ll find someone?

Oh, it’s a crowded room with lonely hearts,

Weaving through the smiles, yet feeling worlds apart,

Dating apps and digital fate,

Searching for love, but it feels like a weight.

So here’s to the singles, with dreams in their hands,

In a world full of couples, we’ll make our own plans,

We’ll laugh through the heartache, keep looking above,

‘Cause even in sadness, we still crave for love.
