Alone

As I sit here Alone My friends around me Are all gathered together Blending into the surroundings As I sit here Alone Their words get louder But I don’t recognize the language Seconds passing like hours As I sit here Alone They seem to not notice I blankly force a smile When they ask for group photos As I sit here Alone In the pictures they post Im stuck in the middle Yet I feel like a ghost As I sit here Alone I stare at my plate An untouched salad I plan to throw away As I sit here Alone I forget to breathe in Feeling empty inside I just want this to end
