He walks into the crowd

Hoping to drown it all out

The pain

The shame

The mumbling his name

He shoves his hands deep in his pockets

Shutting out the world and all who walk it

His earbuds are cranked to the max

The songs reminding him of the past

He nods his head to the beat

The rhythm he tries to keep

With each footstep he takes

He becomes closer to his fate

A foot blocks his own

He tumbles to the floor

Laughter erupts all around

As his earbuds fall out

Bound to the ground

But still trying to run

He picks himself up

Emotionless and Numb
