Apparition

Crying tears of uncertainty
Confused by the novelty
Staring right in front of me
Looking for reasons to be distant & angry
Trying to better understand myself
I stumble haphazardly across the shelf
The sky fades from white to gray
Never allowing my heart to play
For fear of entanglement amongst the day
Fear grips me
Never letting go
Am I a man?
Or a ghost amongst the dead??
