I Don't Get Invited

I think my heart beats fast

Because I haven't been hugged in a while

And I think I blink too much

Because I haven't seen the light in a while

I think my lungs are starting to burn

Because I haven't breathed real air in a while

I think my aunt told me once

That my eyes looked like the dark

Like the light that once illuminated my inner world

Was now gone

I think I walk fast

Because I haven't been invited anywhere in a while

It was only Christmas 

And I was dancing alone in my room

I've worked with people but alone

In my room

And so, I didn't get invited to their rooms

I think I haven't opened my mouth

Because I haven't been talked to in a while

But even if I was

I'm not sure I have much to say

I'm only a stranger

Coming on Earth to say

Hey! 

I've been invited by an entity 

Bigger than me

And I got no idea

Why

I just know 

My heart beats so fast

Because I haven't been hugged in a while
