Is There Anyone Out There Worth Caring About?

My mind wanders as I sit alone
Wondering what is out there
Is it a world I could care about?
Millions of people all running around
Doing their own things
Separate lives not intertwined
Is there anyone even worth thinking about?
Does anyone think about me?
I strain my thoughts
Searching for one name
One person who deserves my thoughts
So many rush through my life
Never stopping to talk
That is okay for both of us
I never take the time to know them
They are dismissed as soon as they appear
Maybe I feel I am not good enough
Could it be that they are the inferior ones?
I may never know
I don’t care enough to want to know
So, why do I even ask?


----------  Before anyone asks...NO, I do no feel like this. I was watching a TV show abut 
someone who felt this way and it got my creative juices flowing.  ----------

You describe the feelings of one in the depths of depression very well, Robert. Guess we've all felt this way from time to time, but I'm glad you weren't writing about yourself. Great work! Love, Carolyn
