Just a Sonnet Xv

I wrote a sonnet today 
About how sad I am
Of how much I feel away
My head is full of problems
That I cannot begin to solve
Hey! Neighbour
I don’t want you involved
When life cuts like a razor
Please make a way for me
I’m aware of selfishness
Yet distance yourself I kill slowly
See, I’m more of a mess
I have a soft spot for hurt
What do you know? maybe I’m a lotus flower in dirt.
