When home is no longer there
And there's no place
To spend the holidays,
Except where you are
And you are totally alone-
Choking, realizing
Your unripe independence
And needing the security
And warmth
Of a real family...
But cannot reach to your own
And everyone's away with theirs
You are small
Very, very small
Until you disappear
Like things forgotten...

Do you really think that people in that situation, think the way that you have written? People are displaced for various reasons such as education, employment, social issues and the rest.
It's gloomy atmosphere but your creativity here makes it sound clear and has some unique to that feeling...But Romeo, we need to remember the more we care about the gloomy things the darker it will be...I think you are using whole feelings dark or bright to create a such beautiful garment to wear on your soul..You are not small and you just not because we become smaller when we see other is bigger...but the fact is you are not smaller than other and it's normal :) be happy always my friend_Unwritten Soul
