Why Is It ?

Why is it

That I can make a lady smile
And never claim her heart ?

Why is it

That no matter how often I find love
It always leaves me in the cold ?

Why is it

That despite all I may accomplish
That it means nothing to my soul ?

Why is it

That though some claim love for me
I am forever and always alone ?
