why are there dark circles
under my eyes?
it's summer time.
oh that's right.
i haven't slept in so many nights.
because i simply can't
but i guess it's okay.
and in the day
i stay in.
why?
because i'm trapped.
all alone i'm trapped.
i'm trapped inside my head
and my room,
the only place
i feel safe.
but no one understands me.
no one gets it.
no, i don't like
to be around people that judge me
for living the way i do.
but of course
i have to socialize
even if i don't want to.
it's impolite in their mind.
but my mind isn't like that.
i may be trapped in my mind
but i like living there.
it's not always sunny
trust me the weather gets bad.
thunder and rain are hazardous
but the volcano
it's the worst part.
but when the weather is nice
my mind is peaceful.
peaceful as when i
watch the sun rise.
i'm all alone
but i'm at peace.
suddenly i don't care
about the dark circles
no longer.
