This world makes me feel like an outcast most of the time.
More often than not, I want to retreat inside myself.
I want to sit in a cocoon of my own warmth and hide.
I love being by myself, I thrive being alone and away.
Yet, I also crave somebody. I crave friendship and belonging.
The right person makes me feel like a social butterfly,
The right person helps me out of my gilded cage to fly.
Yet, the wrong one can scare me back into my cocoon.
They have me running back to shelter, up and away from danger.
This world frightens me most of the time, I'd rather be alone.
This world makes me feel like a freak, a big lonely freak.
Nobody understands me or wants to understand, they laugh instead.
Sleep seems like the only solution right now, let my soul rest.
My soul is drained, it may take years for me to recover. If I ever do.
