Nobody
That's who I am here
Alone
In this desolate wasteland called life
Shamed, shunned, scorned by all
Wanted by none
Is it really worth it?
Living in a world
Where nobody
No body
Treasures your presence
Praises your strengths
In a universe where
Even the poor
Homeless
Kick me out on the streets
And not even the winged seraphs of Heaven
Above
Or the fiery demon of Hades
Below
Want me
Value me
There is no spring
To my winter
No radiant butterfly
Waiting
To burst forth from its cocoon
Its prison
No
I'm trapped here
I'm an outsider
A nobody
A nobody who is utterly alone
Forever
