The Search

Help, I'm stuck.
Back row.
Center stage.
Lost in the crowd of individuals.

Straining to hear myself
Over the silent scream

I'm alone
But that's what I wanted

Isn't it?

The search for myself
Intersects
The road maps
And game plans
Of so many others

Searching for themselves

Just
Like
Me

The taste of monotony fills my ears
And I'm back to where I began

Alone in a sea of millions

Hidden within myself.
Trapped in a broken spotlight.
