Another day,
Another hour,
Time is flying by,
But I stand still,
I'm present,
But I'm not truly there,
I see everything,
But I can not hear,

It seems as though
Everyone has moved on,
While I stand still,
Unable to move,
Waiting for someone to notice,
Waiting for someone to drag me with them,
I wait for the world to tell me what to do

But it doesn't
That's something I have to figure out on my own...?
