fear holds me in place
snaking up my legs
rooting me down
fog curls from the forbidden shadows
blurring the faces of
my friends
my peers
my loved ones
but they don't mind
they don't notice the wall I built up
I'm out of sight
and I will be forgotten
but I know the world will keep turning
and time won't slow its pace
at least
not for me
