Lonley

Why do you not look at me?

I am here.

I am real.

The possibility of friendship is right in front of you, but I'm the only one putting in effort.

All the friends you claim to have do not truly care.

The only thing that seperates us now is five feet, but you make it feel like miles.

Please put down the phone and look at me.

I'm living in a false world where everyone is alone.

You stare at the screen all day, but I stare at you.

I just wish you would look up at me.
