Lost in loneliness
Lost hand, reaching into the darkness
But left to drown in loneliness.
Searching for another to latch on to,
Hoping and praying for someone to come through.
They walk past in disgust
For to them popularity is a must.
Refusing to take notice of the being,
Not believing and not seeing.
Knowing that you’re not the same
Makes you hang your head in shame.
Feeling the need to tell a teacher,
But they just appear a distant creature.
You want to make them listen; you want to make them hear,
But all your body will let out is a single tear.
