37) Paranoia

205 18 12
                                    

My eyes wander by you

and I wait and I wait

All the birds they flew

far far away, (from me?)

I drift between realms of awakeness

my head overly awakened

I seek in sleep, I seek in sleep

everybody watches me

walk on, I'm not a leader, I'm weak

Soft soft sleep

Doesn't drown it all out

and I wait and I wait

for rest of conscious' hyperactivity

wait for it to just relax

because I do know, truly in my heart

that my unease is groundless

and yet, my insecurities are burying me

in the ground again, and like always

Like I am, like I always have been

I am afraid (but of what? nothing?)
