The Incel’s Lament

I met you
On a cold,
December morning

Snowflakes
Slowly melting
In your hair

You asked me
For directions
To Salvation

Then you left me
Without wondering
If I cared

I chased you
Down the road
To greater glory

Always
Just one step
From your side

You never
Stopped to rest
Or recover

Never once did
You look me
In the eye

So
now
I’m

Crying
All my tears
For you darling

I’m crying
Cause you don’t
Know my name

I’m crying
All my tears
For you darling

And you’ll never
See me crying
Again

I only wanted
To be your one
True companion

The one who
Would protect you
From the storm

Though we never
Even had a
Conversation

You never let me
Keep you safe
From harm

Now I wonder
If you know just
What you’re missing

What kind of man I
Could surely turn out
To be

Have I misread
This entire
Situation

Don’t you owe me
The chance to find out
And see

So
now
I’m

Crying
All my tears
For you darling

I’m crying
Cause you don’t
Know my name

I’m crying
All my tears
For you darling

And you’ll never
See me crying
Again

I met you
On a cold,
December morning

Snowflakes
Slowly melting
In your hair

You asked me
For directions
To Salvation

Don’t I owe you
A little common
Courtesy

You don’t owe me
Anything it’s
Plain to see

I don’t own you
So right here I’ll
Let you be

Yes, you asked me
For directions
To Salvation

And one day I
Hope that’s right where
I’ll be

Yeah maybe one day
That’s right where
I’ll be
