i lose myself in your words

[the_katsmeow]

i lose myself in your words
and for a moment
i fail to recognize my own reflection
is it possible to be altered like this
with only a few thoughts
no touch
no taste
just a connection?

i can feel myself pulling away
afraid of the unknown
scared of walking that familiar path
and losing my footing again

sometimes it is so much easier to just disappear
but it is worth the coward's curse of being alone?
