Every waking moment my head spins, Thoughts buzzing back and forth like cesium. My soft face ****** hot with needles and pins, And yet I still cannot stop pleasing them. Always wanting to scream but freezing when I feel them start to pull away from me, My heart seizes and I stop breathing then; I can’t lose anymore, I’m so lonely. Perhaps without me they live more freely, Too much a burden on their shallow mind. I really wish I wasn’t so needy, But I can’t escape these vices that bind Me to others’ love, fuel my seething pen. I’ll fall in love, and they’ll just leave again...

I Wish I Wasn't
Every waking moment my head spins, Thoughts buzzing back and forth like cesium. My soft face ****** hot with needles and pins, And yet I still cannot stop pleasing them. Always wanting to scream but freezing when I feel them start to pull away from me, My heart seizes and I stop breathing then; I can’t lose anymore, I’m so lonely. Perhaps without me they live more freely, Too much a burden on their shallow mind. I really wish I wasn’t so needy, But I can’t escape these vices that bind Me to others’ love, fuel my seething pen. I’ll fall in love, and they’ll just leave again...
Pretty self-explainatory I think...
