Nowhere, Nothing, No-one-Somewhere, Something, Someone, by Anna Lorena Subscribe to rss feed for Anna Lorena

On a strange day we stood in the middle of Nowhere
Wondering if we'd meet a Nobody
Wondering if we were Nobodys that a Somebody would stumble
upon
And as we stood there and stared into Nothing
We felt Someone watching us
Somehow
We were these little Nothings- 
Nothings who were looking up to Something-
Someone we thought was very different
A daring Someone who wouldn't just let 'good enough' pass
Someone who was interesting, had a career, had a family
Someone who wasn't mediochre
We wanted that Someone who had noticed we Nothings
To teach us how to get out of Nowhere
But none of us were brave enough to ask
Even though he was looking right at us

So we sat there and wondered
Thought about it- and made no descision
We wrote it down in fanfiction
Spilled it out in poetry
But not one of us Nobodys 
Was going to ask this Somebody
How we could be special too

Today?
You wonder what happened-
Did we ever ask?
Well, let this be your answer.
I am sitting here in Nowhere
Staring at a photograph of Somebody
And wondering if he'll ever stop by again
So maybe- just maybe
We can join him Somewhere
