Surrounded

December 23, 2008
By Anonymous

I feel surrounded
Like I have no room to breathe
I feel alone
Like it's only me who feels this way

I wanna be free
Like a bird in the sky
I wanna be like every other person in the world
Normal,as can be

But then i think
what if people aren't free
what if... everyone else feels alone and surrounded
if they feel just like me
