i see you watching me every step of my way

and i overanalyse any word i hear you say.

i make up in my mind how you must feel about me

surely that's a terrible way for me to find peace?


you follow me online

never liking a single post

but always in my views

like a little judging ghost


but i wonder what you think,

based on how little you know.

you must only hear the bad stuff,

about when i fail to grow.


but if i had it my way,

you'd hear nothing at all

because why should you know

about things so personal?

i try and size up your beliefs,

figure out what you're about


and i breathe a sigh of relief

when i've got one less reason to doubt.

but that doesn't happen as often as i hope

this is so ridiculous

i really need to find another way to cope



- we've never even had a conversation.
