Sweet Spot

Something for the world to see,
Preposterous assumptions they have made of me,
clinging to the chatter going around,
I have spent many days in doubt.

Doubt eats you in the day n lets you weep at night,
The mask of sobriety is one that weighs a rial and 
costs a pound,
Face marks are now visible over n  out.

Black circles are around,
Floating but feel I'm drowned,
even rationale doesn't seem sound,
Praying with an atheist mind,
Kept it going still behind.
