Nobody

Walk into the store and nobody says "hi"
Take the car down the road, no one bats an eye
My lover makes plans and excludes me again
My family hangs out but nobody says when
It's like nobody cares, nobody wants me
Nobody is bothered when I'm absent or free
Can't get out, can't get better, just trapped in myself
Til the day they all leave and I meet someone else
Will the cycle repeat with the next friend and next?
Or will I be somebody somebody expects?
Will I someday be wanted, treasured, and loved?
Or will I stay nobody to everyone?

This poem is about: 
Me
My family
