Surrounded by People

Surrounded by people
you are silent

In a crowded room
you are alone

You are hardly
the boy I know

Not quite the same as the boy who
walked down the street with me

You are cold and distant
not the playful guy
who surprises me from behind

The boy who tickled me the other day
is gone
replaced by a stranger

A tired, worn soul

The hand I used to hold
is slightly out of reach
