Angst

The crowded places
The blurred faces

The incessant noise
The lack of poise

The demand for air
People I cannot bear

I wish to go home
I long to be alone

"She's quite unsociable," they say
I want to get away

Retreat to the safety of my room
Unsociable girl, the role I assume

I'm more than sure everyone has felt this way at one point in their lifetime. People and crowds are overwhelming, and that is far from your fault. Every person needs to recharge their social battery before the battery dies.
