Alone

As you sit there staring
Letting the whole world go by.
On to the rooftop you venture
No one to stop you
Everyone around oblivious of your reflection.

    One of my best friends and I (not the one I am boycotting) joke about how I am invisible. This joke comes because I am thick in size I am taller than the average female at 5'7. I always have on baggy clothes and they are normal probably black or dark. Yet some how when we are walking in malls or crowds of people or just minor stores people will bump in to me. They just don't see me. It's a very odd thing. Until it started happening with regualrity I paid it no attention but now... It really astounds and saddens me all at once. I must exist, alone, on my own separate plain of reality.

    That is sad alone. Deep, cold and lonely.
    Powerful acrostic.
    Very good.

    ive always wondered which is worse to be alone or to be lonely.. i came to the conclusion its to be alone.. lonely is only a passing moment in that time but to be alone can be eternal in the mind.. well written.. pen on!!!

    you'd be amazed at how many people see you
    and try as you might
    you are never truly alone

    Well put, short and to the point, and a very clear...sad illustration of..... alone. When one is truly alone, there are no witnesses.. to change things.
