contest In a world where I did not exist
sponsor...Silent One
The judgmental world is an empty place
where people are unforgiving if you are different
based on their failure of humanity
I was judged
to those who judged I was invisible
though in a crowd, no one saw me
I cried out, but no one heard me
unseen in a world filled with eyes
drenched in despair, soaked in loneliness
where their feet walked upon my tears
the hand I reached out, never taken
I was nobody
a singular figure obscured without reason or fault
becoming a ghostly phantom no one looked upon
this burden of nonexistence caused me to melt away
without resistance
no one saw me go, no one cared
no one knew I was there
I was...until I wasn't
it was a world where I did not exist
