Nothing lonelier than being alone in a crowd standing still in a bustling sea of aliens they speak their dialects and look right through me as if I wasn’t there Feeling insignificant I don’t belong and everybody knows it like an imposter trying to fit in but wearing the wrong camouflage I try to merge with oncoming traffic but they ignore me and won’t let me in refusing to give me a chance I am not worthy and they let me know it Secretly part of me thrives in their ostracism content that I have made my attempt that like amber in layers underneath there is more to be found in silence Inspired by movie “Lost in Translation”

Sometimes I will ask a few people a question or say something with no response…they being apparently lost in the crowd of their thoughts…lol! Lost in translation…our universe to another…sometimes they meet or there is deadly silence or is it bliss…our perspective! Hugs
