Every single thing bothers me
From the slightest change of tone
In someone's voice
To choice of words they use
And the way their eyes fixate on me
I feel the need to have
Constant reassurance
But life doesn't not work
That way
Everyone's words are so harsh
Just like mine
I'm really having a hard time
It shows
People can see it
And yet
I'm trying to hide it
Because
Whatever that is bothering me
Will not go away
Every word I'm writing
Is from a tired spirit in confusion
And in need of comfort
Awaiting a miracle
That isn't going to happen
I wish
I would stop feeling like
Fading away
Is the only option
- me ; 11:55pm
