Nov 2018
she was just a girl, trying not to be
hiding from the world, forgoing to see
what was happening around her and what was real
she escaped in her own world, and tried to heal
from all the pain and all the trauma deep inside
taking pills, drinking herself to sleep
trying to think, but not too deep
she had peace there, in her own world
where the outside could not touch her
her bubble was strong
The years passed by, she was inside very long
Then he came along and put a needle in her balloon
he said, come out, i will see you soon
she trusted him and grasped for his hand
only to find out she had no foot on land
his hand was gone and so was he
now she is here, trying not to be
once again, anymore

She could have made friends
she could have seen lands
but instead she escaped in the comfort of her own mind
trying not to see, making herself blind
creating a big bubble, which was not really there
the real world and all the options were too much of a scare
she craves safety and comfort and care
But what she forgot was to share
share her feelings, share her thoughts, share her laughter, share her pain
she was living in vain
no one could come inside her bubble, as hard as they tried
when they came to close, she would start a fight
go away and leave me alone
i want to be in my own home
where i am safe and no one can hurt me
but now she is out, and she can see
the years that she has missed
the pain that she has caused
all the wonderful opportunities lost
it is unbearable to face reality
it is unbearable to be me
