being trapped in a room
whose walls are mirrors,
constantly looking at you
but not really seeing you.
being surrounded in a crowd
whose countless eyes
are constantly looking at you,
but they never actually did.
being accompanied by friends
whose genuine eyes
constantly see the good,
but you deny in disbelief.
being suffocated in a box
whose sides have written your flaws
which constantly flow in your mind,
but never cross anyone else’s.
being dropped into a pit
whose bottom is undiscovered,
constantly falling
but you try to hang on.
being uplifted by family
whose eyes see you,
constantly see you,
but you cannot.
