Though there are so many people passing me by
I feel so alone, alone, I could cry
I say hello each week to a new one or two,
They respond in kind, then they look right through
It has been some time since I have felt this low
Sometime back when I left a plane, Seabag in tow
I feel as if I am back on that island
Not water, nor steam but surrounded by mainland
Though lonely, it is not all that I feel
Incompetent like I don't belong, is this real?
I always tell myself I can do anything if I try,
So why does it feel like a punch in the eye?
The people seem nice, they smile to one another.
Yet they ignore me, and don't make eye contact with "the other."
the reason for my melancholy may be self induced
I feel as if I am an alien just recently introduced.
The days are cold, and the weather is grim,
My mind feels wounded, lobotomy trim
Not one new friend or pal, has shown a interest
I feel as if I am the smallest person to ever exist
I am feeling so crushing like a wave coming down
I have to keep swimming, I won't let me drown
The feelings I get as I walk out the door,
I know they won't quite till I hit the floor.

Well written. I like that the subject of your poem is a true worry of yours! I appreciate that you take a feeling and put it on paper. That is real poetry! So, great job!
And fitting in a new place, especially different from what you are used to, is hard but is also very beneficial (even though it does not seem like that at first, i know). My best advice to you is, get out of your comfort zone and you make the effort to meet new people. I believe that they will respond well to that. |
