Why?
May 17, 2019
Is there a reason for why I’m always left out?
Why him? Why She?
Why her? Why he?
But I wonder why not me?
But now I don’t care
Scared to be alone, no more
Why should I care
But still I wonder why not me?
I’d love to be invited
Just please let me come
Staying alone I hate it
But I ask you why not me?
I’ve made mind I don’t need anyone else.
I’m not alone for I have me and that’s all I need.
Why should anyone care if I’m really lonely?
But deep inside I still wonder why not me?
I don’t need any friends for all I want is me.
Why should anyone care about my feelings?
But all I ask for is a shoulder to lend
Thank you for being there my one and only friend.

This isn't a personal story, but I feel like from the description from other people, this is what it feels like. Having a person there is very important for many people to maintain their self-esteem, and I feel like this captures it.
