I cannot concentrate
When they are home.
It hurts my brain
When all I hear
Is loud voices
And the sound of the TV.
I feel like I can't be myself
When I am around them.
Lightheaded
Anxiety driven
And lethargic.
Oh universe, tell me why.
Why, do I feel this way?
What does my feelings and
Thoughts really convey?
Hunger for something -
Anything takes form.
When they are gone.
My mind returns to peace.
Only to be interrupted
Once again, when they return.

I cannot concentrate
When they are home.
It hurts my brain
When all I hear
Is loud voices
And the sound of the TV.
I feel like I can't be myself
When I am around them.
Lightheaded
Anxiety driven
And lethargic.
Oh universe, tell me why.
Why, do I feel this way?
What does my feelings and
Thoughts really convey?
Hunger for something -
Anything takes form.
When they are gone.
My mind returns to peace.
Only to be interrupted
Once again, when they return.
