Imagination

I've been a loner all my life

I've never really felt like I fit in anywhere and no one seemed to notice me

But my imagination carried me through and gave me somewhere I belonged

I may have been floating in space in a sense, where I was too far away for anyone to see me, but at least the characters in my stories did

To others this may have seemed strange but

 I have never given any thought or concern as to what others think of me or what they would say

I was just...

me

And because of that, no one else cared to actually get to know the weirdo who is always drawing those characters of his

but that was alright

Because

I have my own world

one where I do belong

one that I can escape to when no one here understands

and it's all mine

...

But do you know that after all these years of being locked away alone in my own mind...

One day I finally found out something I had never known before:

not everyone in the real world is like the others

I have been so lucky to find a small group on this planet that accepts me

just the way I am

So maybe

maybe they came from space too
