Alone

Alone. All alone in this world. Aren’t we all? No. We aren’t. No one is. Sadness creeps up on us like a lurking shadow. No one can stop it. No matter how hard we try. No one is alone. Only me. Me only. If I had 1 wish, it would be to never be alone again.

People brush past me. I’m a shadow in this world. Just a speck of nothing. They don’t know I cry myself to sleep every night. They don’t know I have no family. They don’t know I have nightmares where I can never get up. No one knows. No one.

I wish I was not alone. I wish I had friends. I wish I had a family. I never knew them. And everyday no one sees me. My name is Nothing. Yes. Nothing. I have no name. So I named myself. Nothing. No last name. No nothing. I’m just a girl from New York. A normal girl, no, I’m nothing. Nothing is literally nothing. Not anything in the universe.

Sometimes I wish I could go into space. No one is there. That way I’d at least be in silence. We learned about space in science. I’d love to be sucked in a black hole. Because you can’t see them. Like nobody sees me. Space. I’d love to go there.

If I didn’t turn in an assignment, my teacher wouldn’t care. But I do them. I have nothing better to do. And after that I dream about space. The beautiful stars. I’d love to be a star. Everyone would see me. Everyone would know. I wouldn’t be alone anymore. I would have people to talk to.

Today we learned that all the planets have no life on them as far as we know. I would love to live on Pluto. It’s the farthest planet, I mean, dwarf planet. It would be silent. As quiet as a mouse. I would love to live on Pluto. It would be so quiet and cold. :) I love the cold. Winter is my favorite. But no one cares.

This is how I feel sometimes and I hope I make this clear, not everyone is beautiful. Beautiful is not a real thing. It’s something people made up to feel good about themselves. I hate the word beautiful. Well, I shouldn't say hate. Hate is a strong word. It’s a really strong word. Really, really strong.
