Nothing but Bones

You stand alone
No excess baggage
As passersby
Keep passing by

They pretend
You go unnoticed
Pretend to look
Right through you

No one bothers
To comment
On how thin you look
But they think to themselves
Nothing but bones

You smile,
Then laugh
Because you know
One day they’ll be
Nothing but bones too
