they try
To understand me
they want to know the truth
truth is
I don't understand myself
Often
I do enjoy being myself
but that's obvious
when doors around you are closed
permanently
I've no respect for the truth
I found truth
the most blatant lie
'something experienced' can
only be your truth
I do enjoy about being me
yet unaware
of my surroundings
still I'm
aware of my
terrible anxieties
my mundane tasks
(From my poetry collection, “Always in Transit”)
