Alone
I've never been completely comfortable being alone.
And yet I always feel alone when I am in a crowd.
While at family gatherings, I feel like an outsider.
I've always wondered why, why don't I fit in?
Maybe I'm afraid they will sense how broken I am.
But if they sensed it, then they would have to face it.
And I'm afraid that they wouldn't or couldn't,
And then I'd be even more alone.
