Alone

Amidst familiar faces, I stand alone, In a room of love, a feeling overgrown. Though voices chatter and laughter rings, Inside, a solitude that silently sings. A disconnect, a melancholy shade, Invisible walls where my heart's laid. Yearning for solace, though loved ones near, I'm alone in this crowd, my heart's sincere. Yet, hope may bloom in this lonely space, A chance to bridge the gap, embrace. For in vulnerability, connections thrive, Even in a room full of love, we'll survive.
