A Story Never Read
Alienated. Forgotten. Alone.
Unhappy in the place meant to be anything but.
Stranded in a place meant to be home.
How can anything be okay
when the people around don’t care?
To them, you’re just another face,
just another
stranger.
Hopeless. Tired. Afraid.
All alone in a place crowded with people.
Ripped from a joy meant to be found.
With false smiles and light laughter,
how can comfort be found?
To you, they’re just another face.
Just another
nothing.
One smile, one laugh.
It’s easy.
One song, one poem.
Why not!
One person, then another.
Friends.
It should be easy.
It’s not.
So here you are,
alienated, forgotten, alone,
hopeless, tired, afraid.
Here you are,
with nothing more than a pen,
nothing more
than a story never read.
