Ocean

There's a different way to feel lonely.

You're surrounded by people, but no one really sees you.

No matter how big the crowd, you're still in the middle of an ocean.

There's nothing but emptiness on the horizons.

Now you're drowning, but the crowd just watches you sink.

Sometimes there's someone to save you.

Sometimes there isn't.


The author's comments:

This poem is about the kind of lonelines you get when everything should be okay, but you can't help feel that there's something missing. It's almost as if you're drowning and everyone you around you just watches you fall deeper and deeper. Sometimes there's a true friend that can help you resurface, and sometimes you're on your own.
