ALL THE LONELY PEOPLE

They gather in a field

Recognizing one another

As the shadows of life

As the shield of wind

As a reason to step aside

Where did they come from?

Does anyone know his or her name?

Who knows what they think

Who cares what they feel

If ever noticed

They would no longer exist

In the population

Of lonely people

It's odd how we label people as outcasts and treat them accordingly. It's a shame to simply treat them as if they don't matter.I guess if there are many egos that depend on this population of lonely people to survive. It's strange how this enormous population of people are so alone. I wonder could they pair up and eliminate this caste of society themselves. That could be the case...but they emotional damage they've endured will most likely not make it possible. You have touched a very sensitive subject. This poem provokes a lot of thought.

creative =) it reminds me of the movie The Happening, when they're running through the field for some reason.
