Don’t look at me;
For my sake,
Please.

I said don’t look;
So what shall I do?

To hide;
Too deep;
For you to see.

I am the silent column of one;
Not thee;
I am tethered,
Tethered,
Tethered,
Irrevocably.

To the creatures that carry on;
Inside of me.

They cycle;
So very,
Consistently.

Bliss imprisons anger;
Anger dilutes sadness;
Sadness covers for guilt;
Guilt masks humility;
Humility poses for bliss;
Bliss disguised as empathy.

There is no eluding;
For fact is key;
It is not so hard;
To look away from me.
