There comes a time in life where reality does hit you but you don't know what to make out of it.

You wonder if its your fault, if there is something wrong with you.... Or is it just the people.


As I stood there, hoping that someone would come up and talk to me, I realized people are gonna be people. I asked myself "why," why did she decide to ditch me and talk to another girl? Was it because I wasn't enthusiastic enough like the other girl was ..... I still wonder.

It was a "get to know you" kind of exercise, it was the first day of school. I stood there looking around for someone to talk to, when I finally found someone, she didn't see it as rude to ditch me and leave me standing there.

Standing there alone just looking around me and seeing how everyone else was interacting, as I, as I just stood there.

It made me realize that everyone in this world is alone, or feels alone, but never have I felt it so profoundly....

It felt like the world was moving in front of me while I stood there frozen, stuck, chained to a feeling that I couldn't escape .....

I tried to smile, but I was greeted with such bare,cold, serious expressions; making me feel like I didn't belong, like I wasn't wanted.
