i sat silently in the auditorium
my hands clammed up in a fist
their voices echoed in the room
but none to reach me
i sat scared in the auditorium
they gathered in groups
turned round to stare
and all i could do was look away
i sat idle in the auditorium
they would think that i’m
mute like a ghost, dead or gone
walking right through me
i sat praying in the auditorium
my feet nervously tapping
my voice quivering when
i asked the girl beside me
a simple question,
thank god she answered
i sit alone in the auditorium
this room has held my voice captive
my confidence has been stolen
and yet my heart pounds every
split second but you still
cant hear me?

i moved and im now at a different school in a differently country, I feel so left out so frightened and so alone. i want to go back
