Give me that love portion so that I can also be loved
I have been exploring for as long as I can remember
but I have not found the one.

but he shows no concern.
They say he never makes sense,
but he only object them

I am not educated
I don't have fancy words to explain it
But I ones heard people talk about it
Please help me teacher,
...
