Surrounded by others
But I wonder who really sees me.
For me?
The sadness I hide inside or the smile that just doesn’t quite reach my eyes.
When will I stop feeling alone when I have so many who care!
I know I am good but I can’t stay
Not now or ever again.
I know things won’t be the same.
But I’m not the same and I must let go.
To let in the new things for me.
