On the Outside


Living on the outside

Skirting the edges

Of society today

Standing in the corner

Unsure of what to do

And who to speak to

Should I enter the room?

Would I be accepted

Would I be heard

Do they see me

Or am I invisible

To the people around me

Am I an outsider

Do I belong?

And if so where?

Or am I on the inside

Looking out at them

On the outside
