My friends all seem to be noticed, They have prom dates and boyfriends, Their Social Media is ripe with new people every day. They are popular. I am but a shadow in their midst. My family all seem to be fortunate, With their big companies and job success, And their test victories and general triumph. They are successful. I am but a disaster among them. My community blossoms with life and fun, But yet, it shrivels away under my touch, For fear I bring tragedy upon all things I lay my fingers on. So I stay in my shadows, I accept my disasters. I am but a ghost amid the world.

Ghost. -- A Free Verse Poem.
My friends all seem to be noticed, They have prom dates and boyfriends, Their Social Media is ripe with new people every day. They are popular. I am but a shadow in their midst. My family all seem to be fortunate, With their big companies and job success, And their test victories and general triumph. They are successful. I am but a disaster among them. My community blossoms with life and fun, But yet, it shrivels away under my touch, For fear I bring tragedy upon all things I lay my fingers on. So I stay in my shadows, I accept my disasters. I am but a ghost amid the world.
