Only I Shhh Me

I just like the quiet

I wish I could stop talking

without people thinking I've lost it

I don't feel listened to anyway

so would anyone really notice

I prefer observing

I could become the perfect listener

Everyone loves a good listener

a vault of secrets

I want to experience existence

without feeling the need to comment on everything

the need to share my every thought

info-dumping only got me anxiety so far

I'd be happier daydreaming

I don't even know what maladaptive means

I'm never alone inside my head

makes me a great conversationalist

me, my traumas, and my dreams

that is all I need
