i sank deep into the chair that now feels like my home
hours of being told what is wrong with me
by hour one i’m reminded of every single fault
by hour two i wonder what my purpose for being here is- my existence
by hour three i try to swim to my private sanctuary the one i’ve created in my mind for a brief second to attempt to escape the chaos only to be dragged back to reality and told that the face i’m making is disrespectful
by hour four i’m at dinner with friends trying to smile and act like life isn’t so bad
