Internet Best Friends

I wish my best friends were people on the internet. They seem just like me. I yearn for a friend group like them every time I watch their videos. But for some reason now in my life I only have five friends. We're split up now so it's not the same, don't know if it will ever be. I'm quite lonely now. Relying on these strangers on the internet to feel seen. I don't know why I can't make friends easily. I guess everyone scares me. At times I don't care, I enjoy my own company. Other times I feel so alone and weird for being a loner. I wouldn't mind a few more friends, it's just hard. Everyone already has friends so now I feel it's too late. I'll just keep watching my new friends have fun on the internet while I'm alone in my bed.

About the Creator

Writing has always been an escape for me. Something I use as therapy. Reading other's words make me feel less alone and part of a community. That is why I write, so other's don't feel alone and know that someone feels the exact same.
