I am in a place


I am in a place where everyone knows me 

I am in a place where no one knows me 

 

I sleep and eat and walk and exist 

Exist to others but not me

 

I smile and wave and recognize and chatter

I want to hide and say goodbye and tell them they don't matter

 

But who am I?

 

To say these words and hope for reconcile 

So I walk along with no tune no song and hold on for a while
