    Surrounded

    surrounded by people
    faces that do not connect to me

    surrounded by chatter
    but no one is talking with me

    srrounded by movement
    all I want is to stand still

    surrounded by my own terror
    trapped, imprisoned, alone

    I sense a person in a deep depression and the saddness in their heart in the line surrounded by my won terror.

    To be in a croud and all alone, no connection.. Interesting write!

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
