Walk With Me

Hey,

You won't know the feeling of being left behind. It's the worst.

You see them take a step forward. They never dare turn back to look at me, you know? Their backs are turned to me, blocking the light from up ahead. I stayed in their shadows.

Suddenly, I remembered I had feet. When I looked down, I noticed the gap. The gap from them to me. I tried taking another step towards them, but something's holding me back.

I'm stuck, but I'm not. It's really ironic.

In my darkest hours, I thought of reaching out my hand and pulling them back to the same level I am in. But as I attempt to do so, I realized something..

Maybe we're not fit to walk together.

And so, here I am. Waiting.

Waiting for someone to step up from behind, and walk with me.
