Shadows of Isolation

Do you know the torment of isolation in a sea of faces?
In this place, I conceal my true self, my feelings, my sorrow.
I'm forced to wear a mask, to be the person they desire,
Yet they mock me for being too much, making me feel inadequate.

In this crowded space, I feel utterly alone,
Yearning for freedom, yet trapped in a shattered illusion,
A momentary taste of infinite despair and eternal captivity.
