Alone
by Mark Sherrick

Did you ever get the feeling
that you are alone
even when you are surrounded
by people
like in a public place
or a college campus
Its a strange feeling
when you feel alone
even when you are
surrounded by thousands
of people and most likely
a few people who you call
your friends
Its a strange feeling
when you have nowhere
to go and there are plenty
of places to be, or to do things
Its even stranger when you try to
talk to people about this
and they tell you that you are
wrong, or even crazy
Then you find yourself asking
those people questions about
you, or about anything
and they cant answer
That isnt just a strange feeling
It just hurts instead.
