It’s laughable you know… I didn’t see it coming
It just….. Happened
This curse of mine, I did not see
I did not suspect anything to be wrong you know
Until I could not take it no longer
I had to break hiding so much it was bound to happen
You wondered why I seemed so distant even as I screamed without screaming because my body has betrayed me.
I relished emotion ANY emotion because I need to feel alive…
These walls I’ve built between me and the world
My clever mask so deviously donned
For my own protection they are to keep you out
Or to keep me in?
Stupid Questions deserve stupid Answers or else you would not ask “how are you”
Oh how I wish to tell the truth…
But I can’t because you won’t understand
Sadness so deep even tears forsake you
Apathy so binding, even life can’t make you
You wonder why I hardly sleep
Sleep has no sweet embrace for me
You wonder why I’ve become naught but skin and bones
Sustenance has no appeal for me
I want so desperately to live
As life passes me by
You wonder why I no longer care about my appearance
Because I can no longer live this lie
So much at once
My mask it relaxed, my walls they cracked
At last my tears they flood
I want to be loved
I don’t need nor want your pity
I need compassion
Do you truly know what it is to feel to be in a room filled with people
And yet be so utterly alone?
I want to be held just once
by anyone
Anyone at all
