It's 3:33 am
&
I am up thinking about everything again
All the ways I latch on to others as a way to feel more whole & complete
The way I hold paranoia in my head
Seeing all those around me as invisible snakes
Spearing hate on my name
So I lie & stay in shame
Fearing my insecurities are a burden to others
I hide them deep in the crevices
Of all the pain
I've yearned to meet intimate palms with
Those I love
But never do
Instead
Isolation fills
these hands
Full
Of words I wish to let go of
So I can release
Take the empty space & fill
Unfullfilled
Portions of my soul
Maybe there lies a deeper sense of
Inner peace
Crouching in silence
the piercing frequency of questions
Holds voice on tongue
Vibrating
