Snow globe

I've been sitting on the outside
For so very long
I've forgotten what it's like
To feel the warmth of love

Watching quietly
The outcomes so grim
Holding the few that know I exist
That I still have breath

Wishing to calm
All their pain
Take it upon myself
Just to see them smile once again

Then to have them leave me here
In this cold and lonely place
You'd think my emotion
Would be something of hate

But you have to realize
I chose to be here
Alone, the time seems to stand still
Watching what becomes of the world

Snow globes always make me sad~
