Looking In
Author: Opium Crosshairs PM
Have you ever felt that were on the outside, looking in? I have been trapped in a world where all I can do is look at happiness. A short poem.

I'm on the Outside
Looking in
At friends laughing
And playing with each other
At families hugging
And loving
Reassuring
And comforting
But around me
The dark flames whirl
And seek with cold tendrils
Looking for my weak spot
And pounding it until
I can't think from the pain
And the despair
The forgotten memories
The bitter wars
And I'm on the Outside
Looking In
