Maybe I am disaster Loss seems to fill me up and doesn't it, to everyone though? Aren't we all just floating? Everyone tells me that I don’t need another person because I am complete I fill myself So why the **** do I feel so empty? Why am I lonely? Maybe I am disaster But am I that beautiful kind of disaster That wanted kind of disaster How do I open the skies And hug the ones I've lost? Maybe regret is the worst kind of poison Maybe it kills How do I live the way I want to without other people? I have spent 17 years not hugging other people And I think I know why I am so frightened of intimacy So scared Why would any reasonable person give others bits of their souls? Can you trust? Can you trust? What is trust? How do I grow? How do I empty my cocoon? I know who I am because I say what I am But how do I convince others I am wanted? Am I wanted? I don’t know any more
