A new chapter
A foreign place
Filled with people
Whom I've met but not close to
And mainly strangers
From all walks of life
I find it hard to step out of my comfort zone
To engage and be who I usually am
So, I am often in solitude
My mind is convincing me that I do not need friends
That outside of this place, I do have people there for me
Yet, I can't help but feel lonely
When we have to be in groups
There is no one to blame but me
As I find it difficult to let people in once again
Sometimes, I do enjoy this lack of connections and commitments
Letting me go into hiding whenever
And disappear like a ghost
Perhaps, I'd like to believe that I never did exist

A statement of personal isolation and alienation that feels so alone. Nicely written
I often enjoy my life in invisibility, though it does sometimes get lonely. This is a nicely-written poem, well done.
You do exist and you are part of this world. Happy birthday to you on 20 September ! Best wishes for success in life.
