New Voice

out of the spotlight

all i ever wanted was to be left alone,
to get by with as little trouble as possible.
i would imagine how it would feel like to fall into a black hole
or disappear into thin air,
but to my dismay
i became the center of attention.
it was nerve wrecking.
there were expectations
and pressure.
was it too much to ask for;
to be left alone?
answer is no.
but they couldn't give me that.
