Like A Ghost.

They walk in. They walk out. Like I'm not even there. But it's not their fault. What could get their attention? While I sit in this wooden chair? I play with my hands. I play with my hair. Just to get them off my mind. But no matter how hard I try. I know I'm failing. It's just a waste of time. One sits down. Decided to talk. But I'm not the best at talking. When I had trouble with my reply, He looked me in the eyes. Then got up and started walking. I should have called I couldn't do it. I should have shout. But my voice died away. And I was left in this chair. As the one, decided to walk out.
