For The Lonely.

You say you are lonely

You say you are sad

You say it would be better

If you only had

Friends to fill the void

A lover to fix the sadness

All this would make life

Great and grand

Just a little info for you

None of the above 

is true

It will make you happy

Only for a moment or two

we must fix our selfs 

Friends and lovers won't do

We must get help 

That is well overdue.

When our minds are healed 

And our souls feel free

Will lovers and friends be good for thee

Author's Note

Just listening to people on social media.

It seems this could've been aimed at me during a few periods of my life. The importance and truth of the advice cannot be overemphasized. If we don't have a positive view of ourselves, it will show, making us less appealing to others. A vicious circle is formed, and we have a hard time breaking free. An excellent poem, you really express the matter well.
