My hysteria
is an awful silence..
it comes and goes abruptly
before anyone can see how
empty I am left
on the outside looking in;
I am seeing how everyone else
lives their lives
and how I must follow this
In any way I can, I try to get out of this.
I am a zombie,
awake yet dead on the inside
concealed from the world.
I do what's right, what they would only expect...
but I want to be anything but that.
In my own reality, I am defenseless;
I want to be different.
so different that people are uncomfortable
from what they could learn from me
that will never be me
Even when I am idle, I can keep this daydream alive.
