Display Case

It s hard being the center of attention for so many greedy eyes, when you only want one pair locked on you. Or when you want none. But if you put yourself in a box, it locks you away from the world, cuts off your oxygen and slowly suffocates you in utter darkness. A glass case is no better, for the eyes hungrily grab whatever they can find.

I'm sorry if you actually feel that way. You must have been really sad to write such poems.

...Out of pain comes poetry...I write as a way to vent. Thank you for asking, but I’m doin’ fine at the moment.
