Not Really Here

I sit here and wonder where I fit in. Do I belong anywhere is this world, this life? So tired of all the pretence. Does anyone believe this façade? I don’t; Not for a second The desire to run so strong; to flee I can’t be here any more, though I’m not sure I am to begin with. Maybe that’s it. I’m an apparition, somebody else’s nightmare. I’m willing them to wake up, wake up and set me free.

Another invisibility piece I reckon... when your life depends so much on the feelings of others you are trapped, with little self-respect, BRAVO my dear!!! Best wishes, Keith
