Nobody

I walk through this world.
Knowing I'm different, aware of myself.
I wish I was unique,
Just like everyone else.


I'd run if I could,
But I can't out-run myself.
God, I wish I was different,
Just like everyone else.


They don't seem to care,
As they walk past me, without even a stare.
How do they reach that state of mind?
How in heaven do I get there?
That's the path I want to find.


I used to think that being an outsider was a good thing,
To stand in the back, and observe from the wing.
But oh, to be seen... a simple "hey, how do you do?"
But it's as though I'm not there. I'm a void they just walk on through.


There go my loved ones. Starting their day,
Oh, to reach out and tell them,
To touch them some way.
But I'm afraid. The times got too old,
Between us we let our' fire get cold.


I know she's seeing someone else,
And I can't say that I blame her.
Seems almost funny, but I swear,
That our' marraige should've had a disclaimer.


So now I've lost everything,
My love, my world, my wife.
It all happened so fast that morning.
That morning I lost my life.


I still sit here, by myself.
A cld and lonely,  sad old ghost.
Wishing I was different; like eveyone else.
I still have no body. I miss that the most.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
