I feel irritable
for no reason at all.
I can’t shake this feeling
of wanting to scream my head off.
I feel unstable, like
the smallest thing could set me off.
Every noise, not matter how big
or how small
grates on my ears,
and fills me with anger.
My body quivers with unease,
my hands fidget incessantly.
Sensory overload,
can’t seem to dull the things around me.
I want to pull my hair out.
I want to scratch and yank at my skin.
My body doesn’t feel like it’s mine,
I feel uncomfortable. My skin is crawling.
Stop asking me what’s wrong,
I can’t give you an answer.
I could tear myself apart,
piece by piece.
All due to this feeling,
of being overly full
yet
too
empty.
