"If you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it’s not because they enjoy solitude. It’s because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them."
Stay quiet, no one wants to hear about what's tearing you apart. Put on a smile, don't show them how truly sad you are. Laugh and play along, be the perfect person you're meant to be. Now you're forced to just sit and watch as you start drifting away from the person you once were. A person that no one cared to know more about. A person who is cut off from reality. A person who keeps to themselves because they're terrified of what will happen if they don't. You've just become numb to anything and everything. Eyes glassed over, stone cold expression. It's like you are not even a part of the world anymore. You've become nothing more than an extra in everyone else's lives. No one gives you a second thought. You've become so isolated from everything that nothing feels real anymore. Nothing fazes you. You just do what you have to do to survive. Nothing less, nothing more. It's been like this for so long. You don't remember what being a part of society is like anymore. That's what isolation does to you and I should know.
