Cory Long Poet Free verse

Me

Ever feel like you’re alone 
When standing in the middle of a crowd?
Feeling like waldo in a find waldo book.
Like you no longer belong 
The awkwardness is tearing you down. 
Hating the way you view your self 
and wishing for a way out. 
The emotional roller coaster of highs and lows
Knowing you have tried to overcome. 
Never giving up before
Right now I am looking for the door. 
Am I kidding myself? 
Can I figure it out?
