I still can't sleep at night.
To this day,
I can't hold my head up when I walk through the halls.
To this day,
I question every part of who I am; who I was.
To this day,
I wonder if I'll ever  be someone.
              To this day,
                    To this day,
                         To this day,
My worries have become more than just a burden.

One

The world around me slows to a crawl,
No one around me knows me at all.
I look over the crowd of familiar faces,
From various times and different places.
They laugh and they play, one and another,
All with secret pains, I’m just like the others.

"I wish you well."

(but not too well without me)

I like 10 word poems because it forces you to summarize your thoughts to the point where you're really only saying what you mean.
Maybe I should try using that same theory in my own life, haha.
