Nobody

The lane was swarming with people,
people clad in woolens all grey,
The Back of swarming humanity,
was all my mortal eyes beheld.
For a safe passage home, like all, did I pray.

A man in raiment of the many,
Stepped up and nudged past my shoulder,
I saved from fall, and protested...
Back he turned and spat with venom'
"And who may you be dear sir, to lead my way?"

I could only gape...

My speech faltered me, so did my thoughts,
My concious left my limbsand my heart pierced by lead shots.
For, an apt answer to his demand,I couldn't find,
For, my name is none save a meaningless syllable to the man's mind.

Who am I?
Waht have I that he not posses?
what think I that he not thinks?
What feel I that he not feel?
To a man aside the two of us, we're twins,
And to yet another, we three triplets!
Loth am I to stray into this thought,
But the ugly nudity of truth, threatens to choke me.

Dear to my kin in a home...transcient,
Nobody to the people of the lane where I walk,
Dear to the Inhabitants of my own world... so miniscule,
Nobody to the man of whom i talk...

Feeling really depressed these days. Got no one to share feelings and I am a pressure cooker without a safety valve. Mom is really scornful these days with my marks and progress (or should I say decline?) going for a six. Suddenly life is seeming to be out of m control. Emotions, memories are all spilling about ... all at the wrong time. Shit man... that's about all I can say.
