That Point
That point, that invisible point where everyone has shifted away from me and I’m alone in a crowd. In a group.
The point is crossed and a wall comes up.
I shout, I yell, I holler, I scream for someone to hear me.
The music blares, the conversation ripples, but I can’t be heard.
The wall is soundproof. I was thrown in an enclosure, surrounded by those walls.
Nobody needs me, once I’ve passed that point.
