Sometimes I feel
So deeply
So vividly
It crushes me
I’m an introvert
Always hiding
Always alone
And it hurts
I seek a true friend
To share
To laugh
To cry
Does this one exist
I think not,
Not in my life
Not in my universe
And so I wander
Disconnected
Unbound
Undone
This is not poetry
This is truth
Hear my thin voice
Crying in the wilderness
Please someone hear me
Somebody save me
My cries become an echo
Speaking into the ether
