I'm all alone with my little group of air, sitting with only four lone chairs.
And wondering if anyone is noticeing....
That I am all alone.
I feel a chilling vail come over me, that I'm just too different, too much of an individual for them to notice me.
So here I sit...
With my little group of air.
Watching them stare...
At solitary me with
Only
Four
Lone
Chairs.

I wrote this one day when I was in class and we were doing a group assignment. Everyone had a partner, but me. No one wanted me to join them. They all just ignored me. I felt so...out of place..so different. I hope they hear my perspective of things.
