they want me to be open
about my disorder
my illness
my disease
"you should talk about it,
tell you family about it,
write something about it"
but i don't want anything about it
i don't want to talk about it
i want to pretend it's not there
i don't want you in my business
i don't care about it
i'm tired of it
so shut up
because i don't have an illness or disorder
or disease or sickness
i'm just me
so get over yourself
