An Inspired Story

Alone

I'm in this house full of people

but I feel so alone.

Not lonely, but alone.

There's a difference in those words

And I don't know how to tell you.

Lonely is,

I have no one to talk to

and I miss it.

Alone is,

I have people to talk to

but they don't understand my words.

Imagine,

being in a glass box surrounded by people

and banging and screaming

at the people milling around you

but none of them can hear you.
