So you want to know
What's going on
Inside

I'll tell you

Kicking
Screaming
Tearing
Punching
Throwing
Lots of thinking
And imagination
Repeating
Over and over

About all kinds of stuff
Mostly reality
You
Them
Everyone
Family
Money
Time
Tasks
Priorities
Comm­itments
Promises
How not to break them

So much going
In so many directions
I feel like I'm being
Torn apart
Wanting to hide
In a hole
Somewhere
Nonexistent

Sure
It is pretty trivial
Compared to what
Everyone else
Is going through
Compared to you
Or you
Or you
Or you

But I'm not anyone
Else
I have my definitions
My standards
My Rights
To what I think

So stop comparing
I. Am. Me.
