Sitting alone on a park bench
She absentmindedly feeds bread
To the birds on the ground
Crowding around her feet
She is wondering why she
Is sitting here all alone
When she should be
With somebody
Wondering what it is
That keeps her from
Finally finding the
Love of her life
Remembering the time
She had so high hopes
Only to see opportunities
Fade away
To be abandoned to
A life of loneliness
Sitting on park benches
Feeding the birds
They say hope never dies
But they don’t tell you
How hard it is to live
With nothing but hope
