alone in a crowded room

Alone in a crowded room

Voices all around
Too muffled to distinguish a single sound

People come and go
Can they see me, I do not think so

How can this be
When there are so many surrounding me

Should I drink
No, I must be able to think

Why can’t I be seen
What does this mean

Tears stream down my face
I have to get out of this place
