Bliss
I always spent my days dreaming
Locked away in my own small world
rejected by the ones I love
Shunned by everyone
I learnt quickly to shield myself
Locking myself away inside
Protecting my mind from others
Just to allow myself some peace
I have never been charming
I have never been social
Alone with my thoughts forever
The only kindness around
Happiness did not exist
In school I was the "loner"
Different to the others
In time I grew angry
at how I was treated
abused, abandoned
My body just a shell
Shut off from my mind
I felt empty inside
I had no saviour
I saved myself
Leaving everything
To find my own place
No one could judge me
People moved on
I grew bitter
But I was free
to be myself
I'm alone
My heart
My mind
Just me,
myself
bliss
