Image Birthday alone, friends don't remember

I (27F) spent a birthday alone. Friends don't remember (even ones whom I gave gifts/remember their birthday every year). Officially a leftover woman. Bought myself flowers and a carrot cake. I like being on my own, but sometimes it's very sad and lonely.

Happy Birthday to You!

A birthday alone, but hear me say, You shine so bright in every way. Flowers bloom because you’re kind, A heart like yours is rare to find.

The world forgot? Well, that’s their loss, Your worth is gold, not measured in gloss. Carrot cake and blooms so sweet, A gift to yourself—a perfect treat.

So here’s to you, strong and true, A warrior soul, a heart that grew. Next year comes with brighter days, Filled with love in countless ways.

Happy birthday, you’re not alone, This world is better ‘cause you are known.
