Split skin on red knuckles, the sanitiser has left its mark. A Common-place application, a routine, like brushing ones teeth. Scars bare the hallmarks of a damaged soul, searching for a safe solitude. How did I get to this point? The point of: avoiding others, hiding away, irritable behaviour. An Introvert? Perhaps. A word now at least I understand, as I drift into a lonely world or some single-player fantasy. Mask on, shield down, a warrior heads into battle; to fight an invisible war. Unsure of the outcome, unsure of himself. Not sure of anything, anymore.
