The last 2 lines are its own couplet at the end. Each line has 10 syllables. It is an iambic pentameter. The rhyme scheme is as follows: ABAB CDCD EFEF GG.

Suiting myself.

Well this is really hard. It's Valentine's

I guess, but who would even notice me?

The choc'late I bought - I guess it's all mine.

I'll write a card for me. Sweet, simple, lonely.

I never thought, that I would get this far.

I can't do this, I'm better than this.

So no one likes me- why bother at all?

I have plans. I'll make plans. What's on my list?

I'd call Isaiah, but he's with his girl.

I wanna hang with Hanna- she's busy.

And Jen? Aw man, I have really missed her!

I need a life, to fill in what's missing.

Oh, but whenever I'm alone, I'm myself!

Text me later, I am busy as well.
