I exist but I do not co-exist With the world around me I live in a shadow of loneliness that... No ammount of buildings No ammount of lights No ammount of people Can overcome I live in a city full of souls Longing for some connection But no matter how Connected The technology is around us Our souls remain untouched Unwanted In the scheme of life I exist in a bustling city But I do not co-exist with its inhabitants I live in a bubble of Me, myself, and I In the bubble I am Alone But it is by choice To leave the bubble would mean loneliness not by choice but by exclusion... Am I not interesting? Am I too interesting? Or is everyone too caught up to notice Me and my lonely shadow Ever present Ever looming God is good, He is enough But real connection with a familiar soul Is what I long for in my solace I have a family, I have friends But the truth is this; I am alone God is here, He is Listening Watching Comforting But I am alone... I exist but I do not co-exist With the world around me I go through the motions But it does not seem real I have conversations But they have no apeal I exist in a bustling city But I do not co-exist with its inhabitants I exist But not really Not truly

I exist but I do not co-exist...
I exist but I do not co-exist With the world around me I live in a shadow of loneliness that...
