People’s perception
Feel too intensely
Too deeply, too much
My emotions are running cold,
unpleasant to the touch
Don’t judge me based on how I feel
This is how I know how to deal
It’s what I know is raw and real,
They linger in my mind at times,
Feelings almost surreal

But it’s the way I cope
It’s the way I breathe
The way I live, see, and perceive
Do people feel the way I do?
Will they ever understand how much I feel?
The strong emotions stuck to me like glue
Can anything ever make me feel anew?
I felt judged
I feel wronged
When will I finally feel like I belong?
They say the friends you choose shape you
I think that to some of mine, I should finally bid adieu
They say, “I know you,”
But they only know the side of me I allowed them to
And when something real slips out,
They think me untrue
But someone, truly, tell me what to do…
