Alone


I sit here in the corner of the cafeteria every day
lately alone 
just observing people
have you ever done that ?
Just watching people continue on their day
its odd how you can be surrounded by people but yet still feel alone
It happens to me often 
even when I´ m with my best friend 
it often makes me feel invisible 
when you see me walking done the hall way 
you notice that I tend to look down at my feet 
maybe Iḿ not alone just because people don´t notice me 
maybe its because Im scared to face people
to face their opinions 
I hide out of fear of being criticized, judged, and being different
Maybe its time for me to step out of the shadows and show people the real me
Its time I stand up for myself and make my mark
Its time for me to not be alone
This is me and Im not alone
