confusion.

*this poem was written after a confusing encounter I had some time ago.*

As I sat in the corner of the room,

everything around me began to get blurry,

and all I wanted was to leave in a hurry.

I quickly put on my headphones and I tried to drown it all out,

ignoring the tears wanting to be shed.

Not only the laughter and buzzing around me,

but the screaming and voices in my head.

I rested my head down and just closed my eyes,

but then I felt someone sit by my side.

I quickly looked up and saw it was you,

honestly the last person I would expect to see,

I didn't even know you wanted to talk to me.

"Hey" you said, and I said the same.

Not much else was said, and I silently observed you.

Your tired demeanor was something I couldn't ignore,

you were going through something too.

"Enjoy your tunes." you said when you finally stood and left.

"You too."

I know you were in the same boat I was in that day,

but there wasn't much I could say.

I didn't know if my comfort was something you'd accept,

or if it was something you would turn down with a frown.

Please, just make up your mind already.

Do you care about me? Or do you hate me?

I was left in confused and in a daze,

wondering what had happened that day.
