Living in me


Living in me

I'm lonely
I never stop being lonely
I go to bed feeling lonely
and I wake up the same

Even when I am with people
I find myself closed off
encased in a glass cabinet
I can see
I can hear
But I can never reach out
I can never touch
alone
separated
apart

Am I fleeing from them
or are they fleeing from me?
Never once have I been special to another
Am I a monster?
Am I a worthless soul mate?
Can I not love?
Can I not give?
Do I not need to be held
Listened to
Laughed with?

Am I?
