Growing stronger every day
Breathing in breathing out
Distance yourself don't engage
Minimal contact is the goal
Comments like stray bullets
Whipping past my ears
Echoing in my head
Face red not embarrassed
Ignore the stares don't react
Compliments burn when they shouldn't
Leave me be and listen please
Take your bullets take them back
Your words do nothing
A heart not ready so just stop
The notion is noble i think
I want no one so leave me be
Thank you but no
I don't want your bullets
Let me be free and leave me be
