6,700,000,000 people
(or there abouts) .
Yet I stand alone.
I fade not into the background.
I matter on my own.
I stand alone.
All the people in the world.
I stand alone.
All the species on the planet.
I stand alone.
All the sand in a desert.
I stand alone.
All the stars in the sky.
I stand alone.
I stand alone.
I matter on my own.
Yet I am small.
So small,
So scared,
so alone.
I have family,
I have friends,
I am English,
I am white,
I am female,
I am human,
I am 1
