I walk in a land of shadows,
I am neither here,
nor there.
I fell like you can seem me,
and yet you cant.
I feel like you can hear me,
and yet you don't.
I'm not sure why I keep putting myself in this situation,
of wondering why its happening this way,
of wondering why I seem to appear so invisible,
of wondering why I easily blend into the crowd.
I walk in a land of shadows,
I am neither here,
nor there.
I feel like I'm not enough,
that I am standing right on the edge of being in the shadows,
and then being out of them,
and yet,
I don't know,
why,
I keep putting myself in the place to,
feel like this.
