Someone Inside

There was a strange craving in my gut,

Someone inside was speaking to me,

But I felt deaf. Heard nothing.

Someone inside wished to cry,

But my eyes were cold.

Someone inside yearned for something,

But I stood there strange to myself.

My head was lost in thoughts,

The thoughts were never mine,

I did not hear them, I did not feel them.

I wandered in search of someone inside,

I looked for them everywhere.

With a feeling unknown.

With so many around, I was still alone,

I pushed them away,

Because all I wanted was someone inside.
