Silent

 Disconnected,

counting the metaphoric miles

between my world and me.


Struck by the reality

of complete strangers surrounding me.


Disconnect,

don't understand anyone-

but be there,

to be...


Exist for what?

To be me,

or something,

or nothing,

how am I to know?

I've become lost in my existence,

what have I been created for?


Once, I knew the answer,

had a super singular view on life,

well, my view has strayed.


I've humbled myself.

My problems became menial,

and I can't bring myself to care

about the menial any longer.


The world can take my menial life,

and I'd be none the wiser,

as I have nothing left to offer.


I continue to breathe,

but can't understand why.


I don't belong here,

don't know why,

but I continue to be.
