This spider on my spine,
This pain in my mind,
I look and try to find,
A sunbeam that shines.

If only someone would just say hi,
I might be able to smile,
I feel so left out,
I'm invisible to every eye.

This loneliness,
This sickness of my soul,
I still regret,
Not being someone else.

Even though this did not ryhme, and I did not see a true structure, I found this amazingly brilliant, and well thought out; I normally don't read poetry any more, but I love reading good thought out poetry that sparks my interest. Thank you for making this. Keep writing!
