Have you ever felt like nobody
just a tiny speck of air
when everyone's around you
and you are just not there?
When you are very lonely
and no one seems to care
when everyone ignores you
and acts like you're not there?

Have you ever felt like nobody
when frieds make fun of you
when people say we're friends
but it really isnt true?
Sometimes you feel like you're unloved
and no one wants to care
when everyone has a friend
and you're alone somewhere!

Have you ever felt like nobody
just a tiny speck of dirt
you're always getting stepped on
and always getting hurt?
I guess if you have
then you know how I feel
but because I am a person
in time will I heal?


 I'm not waving, I'm drowning!

Oh yes my dear, I have felt that pain.
I know just how you feel.
And yes, time will heal.
Very beautifully written.

I imagine everyone can relate to having these feelings at some point, and you've described them so well...very nicely written.

Well,

Come to think of it, up late I been feelin' like a canyon without an Echo and a summer sun has dried the Rhayne's. Is there a drought draught draught draught draught

Everyone feels like this sometimes. Sometimes you feel like you're alone even if you're with someone. Great poem.
