When I look them in their eyes
I see foreign in my hometown.
I see young souls with smiles
And oblivion in their eyes
I see them making their teenage dream come true.
I see people, lives and stories
And everything blue.
Recognising my reality, longing to be in the picture
I have living nightmares of but's and what ifs
That I feel I don't belong in this teenage dream.
I walk myself out of it.
And inside of me
My soul empty, and my heart wanting to be wanted.
-L.Y.
