Twas supposed to be the year
That I no longer lived in fear
But it’s more complex than that
And the solutions are simple
So why must I relive all the pitfalls?
To ascend beyond
The coffee is exquisite
Cigar smoke is in the air
It’s really not a bad day
I haven’t a care
Which is unusual for me
But I’ll just run with it
Addiction doesn’t have to involve a drug
For one can be addicted to pain
Random people just mean mug
An evil eye full of disdain
That’s why I’m glad I’m here
Away from them away from you
The process of introspection
Leaves my anxiety subdued
But really though what is up with random people eyeing me down in public?
Do they want to get to know me better?
Or do they really just have nothing better to do?
I guess I’ll never know.
I bludgeon them with my return stare
I wish I had more self-control
I need to be more self-aware
What is this even really about?
LET SHIT GO!
LET SHIT GO!
The truth bestowed
Leave me alone
I don’t care if you know me
I’ve just realized that my life
Is exponentially better with less human interaction
Some may say this is dark or misanthropic
Not at all
I love all of you
I just hate being around you
Because you’re disconnected
From anything of any true importance
You’re still caught up on the size of your . . .
I know because it’s your profile pic
And I just can’t operate on that level
And then there are the sirens
Dissecting every word I say
Luring me your way
No longer shall you share my day
No hard feelings
I just really need to start healing
The pictures only lessen the poem. I would use none or one. It does sound like a diary at some point instead of a poem. I like your theme though [liking people while hating to be around them].
Thank you very much for the feedback. I appreciate it.
Generally that's my theme. Poetry that doesn't sound like poetry, but you're right this one is particularly unpoetic, and could have done with far less pics since there's not a whole lot there.
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing post with us!
