I Am An Avoidant

i am an avoidant i avoid the eyes that stare they make me feel like handcuffs to a chair and I'm afraid of the face how it comes to rest on my case the pounding of a heart like the shredder shredding me apart i avoid the local bars and pubs and I'm not living it up at the college clubs i am afraid of life and death hardly seems real be nice cause i don't let my mistakes heal its a burning and bruise cry i am even too afraid to die! i am a selfless fool especially to everyone that's cool i think I'm critically observed by the way my "strait line" curved but really I'm not there i am a ghost in the night air its like i can hear what they say but i am the ghost; no matter what i do or say i hate me in a way but i am here and... i am an avoidant
