Bubbling softly in my stomach
I feel your rejection constantly
Like a shadow that follows me around
Nowhere to turn to escape this feeling
Of inadequacy and dejection
The walls that cage me in
Seem to mock me with their indifference
Their lack of care is nostalgic of yours
Your lack of presence leaves me
Confused and desperate
Not wanting to feel this pain
I reach blindly and wildly around
Grasping at familiar faces and behaviors
Becoming the person I said I wasn’t, and yet
My resolve has dissolved
I’m left with what’s left
And I haven’t felt right in days
