This independence they speak of seems like a myth
I dipped my toes into the vast waters of the reality of life
Only to be overpowered by the immensity
Making me retreat back into this place
Where I have remained
Incarcerated inside of myself
Just a conglomerate of disorders
Inhibited by chemical imbalances
Needing constant reassurance
Like a child
Pathetic
My desire for nothing less than perfection outside of this unreality
making me cling on to apron strings
That should have been severed many a moon ago
