When alone
I’m not alone
My thoughts are in order
I know I’m unique,
With people
I’m lonely
Afraid to be myself
Scared to speak.
I listen hard
To the voices
Bouncing round
Inside My head,
But i’m too nervous
To hear
Or understand
What’s being said.
I seem calm
And relaxed
Though I’m shaking
Inside,
When the time comes
To sneak away
I will smile
Then run and hide.
