Maybe not here

I tried that already, Reaching out and lurching back Like I were the only fool. He didn't say anything at all, And again I felt insignificant, Wondering why my thoughts Revolved so much around another- Another who I don't really need Or know for that matter But want to For some irrationally inexplicable reason. Why? Why seems to haunt me these days. Why is life like that? Why does he look away? Why do I not know Him Or me for that matter? Why must I whine? Why care at all? Why must I look for him Among faceless crowds within? Why search for what can not be found? But who says I won't.My teacher said in class today: 'sometimes the craziest alternative is the best alternative.' Don't know how it really connects but it does :) Written January 30th, 2002 © on Jan 30 2002 10:38 AM PST   18 • 0 • 10
