Invisible in the Crossroads

Tell me
Who am I?
I wake up in the middle of a street
With no memory
I call out for help
Despite the surrounding crowd
No one hears
I scream my own heart out
Until my voice cracks
No one even takes a glance
Why?
I yawp
Am I no longer human to you?
You twisted beings of flesh and bones
What am I?
Someone
Anyone
Please tell me
Why can no one hear me?
And why am I so alone?
Are I no longer qualified in your "society"?
Everything goes black and silent

This poem was inspired by my favorite Nintendo DS game "The World Ends With You."
