Silence amidst a crowd

Like a leaf falling in spring
or a dead tree blossoming
when the snow covers all in white
it will be dark instead of bright

Like silence amidst a crowd
or a whisper that comes out loud
this is not where I should be
I feel misplaced, now I can see

This is all I ever wanted
but too long I dwelled upon it
Reached my aim but now i'm daunted
my fortune's being shunted
