There are 470,000
Words I can speak
7 billion people I can talk to
Yet I can’t reach out to you
470,000 words betray me
And 7 billion people around
Why can’t I talk to you?
Nothing special
Just a cry
And I am out of my loneliness
Just one word
And my world could come
out of darkness.
Why can’t I speak to you
With one of 470,000 words around me?
Why can’t I muster my courage,
Aim for the stars,
Heck, climb a mountain!
And make a new friend.

How is all of your stuff in the magazine or editors choice? Tell me your secrets!
Also congrats on magazine. Loved the poem

I am an awkward person and can not for the life of me make new friends or talk to new people. Normally, people just adopt me into their friend group.
