I am standing in the
middle
of this
buzzing road
surrounded by heavily crowded pools
filled with plenty of other souls.
there's so many of them
too many of them
how can I ever feel alone?
but I am
alone.
they came in pairs,
in triplets,
quadruplets,
and a million more number variations that I am too lazy to mention!
they are going about the day,
basking in the sunlight of their current successes,
bragging.
I wish they would shut up
there's so many of them.
too many of them.
how can I ever feel alone?
but I am
alone.
I can feel the temperature shift beneath my feet
as I slightly stumble on a
rough patch
they were helping each other ever so kindly
...but not me.
there's so many of them around me
too many of them
how can I ever feel alone?
but I am still
alone.
but I don't much care about that lot
there is another lot
and there are worse feelings:
like feeling shrivelled up in your own
world and left to rot,
lonely
with the people who are supposed to be
your home.
I am alone.
