the pit opens up
i jump in willingly
you look on
your back turned.
I'm not worth it
it reflects in your eyes.
slowly, I'm consumed.
by something you denied.
people rushing by
filled with purpose.
i sit
undisturbed i wait.
for something more to come along
I'm still waiting.
it rains.
people rush to shelter
alone at last,
i rush to join them
in a crowd of people, i am still alone.
