Like Minded Individual

In this place of shallow laughter.
In this place of desperate eyes.
I saw the stare of bitterness your perfect smile belies.
And I heard your voiced opinion,
In your cruel, vindictive tongue.
Above the dying music, I heard your caustic song.
While you sit and point your finger,
At those dancing on the 'floor.
It seems their exultation just upsets you all the more.
So you try so hard to differ,
Then assault those unlike you.
But you're just another painted face amongst your chosen few.
In your eyes I see the loneliness,
That you try so much to hide.
Some flicker of emotion of some pain you hold inside.
But without your little retinue,
You seem so lost and small.
Yet for you I feel no pity. Not the slightest piece at all.
And I'm oh so very sorry,
I can't share your point of view.
But I'm quite content just being me,
And not another "you".
