Great hallelujah! Rejoice – a victory has come today! In the face of society I managed to fit in Not one could tell I faked my way through normalcy again Rejoice! Victory! Exhausted, still I made it through All the vomited “good mornings” faux displays of real concern and buried, silent yearnings Celebrate! Home at last! Another day of tense smiles Another walk upon the coals I’m spent, completely done I’ve paid my daily tolls Hiding! Alone at last! No anxiety of interaction No pretending to care No people faintly catching The way I deeply stare Into their souls with jealous disdain
