In the shadows I do hide
But fear that’s where I
Shall forever remain
From one part of my life
Past the next junction
Losing almost all that I had
Helping the last few friends
That have seemed to endure
The storms of my life
Trying to reach out
To bring new friends in
But my attempts
Seem so far removed
And subtly played
They are too easily brushed off
Too shy for my own good
too far placed behind
My barriers
And walls of ice
Too chaotic my thoughts and heart be
Trying to figure out what it is I want
Fighting for what I need
Fearing that I will end up
Secluded, isolated, and alone
My personality and interest
Far from the norm
Seem to dissuade others from
Getting to know the inner side of me
