internally i'm silent
i can sense the sound
as it buzzes around me
but i am secluded
i can feel the breaths
of faded strangers
brushing past my skin
but i am disconnected
there is a hurricane
swirling around my head
i can see it
in the corner of my eye
but i'm in my fishbowl
staring at the world
through the glass
where nothing can touch me
and i fear
nothing ever will
