*Clamy hands pull the jacket closer to my torso, warmth enveloping me in a hug so long forgotten to the unknown*
*Ink and paper collide into one when mind's need distracting and thoughts keep wandering. A statement hidden and only shown to those I hold so near and dear that panic when the parchment is taken from me. No surprise when a quick movement snatches the beautiful lines and spent time back to its creator*
*The rush around me is so mind boggling that I feel myself falling. I don't fall into rhythm with the rushing bodies, I just stand tall and stiff. No, I fall deep into the metal bars that block my mind from functioning, only realizing when it's too late that the key was in the palm of my tattered fist.*
*Why stand stiff and tall, keep quiet all along while others dance to the song? I've long forgotten how to dance, simple music is my taste but I simply cannot find it in me to join the tune. I can't dance and I'll simply be a bother as I burden their shoulders with my own being getting in the way*
*I've been told by many but I can't help but ponder the thought that is my existence and hate that I exist*
*The speed of my mind simply cannot keep in line with others that just exist. They simply don't ponder what I always wonder about every little thing. Going with the flow, always on the go, when I simply want to be alone. Not necessarily alone in terms of presence, no I do like the company. But I simply hate accompanying public places that I take up the spaces and have no importance in the moment.*
*The comfort of being in my four walled environment with my own tune ringing in my ears is a true delight, not having to stand in the light as I watch others live their lives and leave me bewildered by their minds*
