Ask me
Trapped in a mindset of fantasy Cradling beliefs with no foundation in reality. Alone in a mind of oil Staining all who brave my touch Familiar faces soaked in anxiety They stare with memories I long to forget These glossy eyes that fear closing... moving.... shifting.... seeing... Worlds will fall Perceptions will alter These words are caught in my throat Festering How do I say hello? How do I keep the conversation going? Are they staring at me because they know I'm not normal. Can they see my disfigured soul hiding beneath this skin? This deformed skin.... Do they notice that I am an imposter? Do they see how I react alien to how they do? How I second guess each expression. Words fall from my eyes without allowance. The connection isn't there. I Stare down I drown them with every glance. Words falling. Flooding. Making oceans of unspoken phrases. Needs. They breathe me in. All the words I've never spoken. They drown in my illusions. And run away like mad men. To a world I cant seem to be a part of. Trapped in a mindset of fantasy Oil drowns me, and dilutes my words. Taking away who I am. My words are my life. But I cannot speak them. No one will ever know. And I will never tell them. I am Drowning in illness. __________________________

Social Anxiety
You make me happy But sad at the same time You chose me Yet you haven't You chose to be nice And yet you still cause pain I want to be in your arms But I'm scared you'll drop me I guess these are feelings of love and yet I think I love you...
