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
