Quiet

A Poem

Quiet.

I find the world strange

And I myself strange within.

Do people notice me,

Do they see what I see

Do they even notice.

I find the world strange

And I myself strange within.

I see the world,

I see you

As I do not exist

I am the sabotager.

I find the world strange

Do people notice me

I am here all alone

Angry inside, not without

The fear of people

Is what keeps me locked away.

I find the world strange

Do they see what I see

The Instability.

Inward destruction.

Turn around, hide in denial.

We are all flawed.

On the borderline

Living with the struggle

Just don’t abandon me now.

I find the world strange

Do they even notice

I disappeared from life,

In my self-imposed prison

I pushed everyone away

I can’t get out now.

Intense despair

The strong current of emotions

Drowning, slowly

An empty void.

Who am I really.

I cry out, a silent scream

A quiet borderline.
