loneliness in the presence of company

when you're around others, yet you can't seem to feel like you are

you feel the same as you did when you were lying in your bed, unable to move from the overwhelming sense of loneliness

when you're with your friends and they might ask why you're so quiet, they ask "are you ok?"
you smile and say yeah :) I'm great...

you don't know what's wrong with you and you wish you could make it stop, but it seems impossible

you wish all those people around you could help but the ringing is too loud, and you can't ask for help

meanwhile, you're wishing with all your heart that you could feel like you're not alone
