Hey... check out this poem. It was written by my older sister's batchmate, Neil Cabato. I don't know if this poem was based on his personal experiences, but what I do know is that I can relate to it based on mine.
Look at it carefully. Maybe you'll discover something, too.
INDIVIDUAL -
Neil CabatoEverything's so hollow
I can't survive this plight
Bereft of companions
Lonely in the night
My mind has been screaming
My heart has long been spent
Everything's just a facade
Waiting to break apart
Loneliness has claimed me
I am distinct from the whole
Existing in a world that's mine
Made from pieces of my soul
I am the person in the background
The unimportant one
Propping up the hero
Observing silently from the side
It's too far out to return
The norm is just not me
I am my own man
And forever I shall be.
