Around people I don’t know what to feel
Many not knowing what’s going on
Each one is revolved in their own world
Hey You. I sit next to you, my eyes wander around
Not knowing anyone, what can I do to stay sane
Alert, Shaken, Confused
Motion sensitivity activates in an unknown place
The focus corner stare on people without purpose
Easily startled when a single noise shakes
Crowded light places make me anxious
Wide awake when I’m alone
Wishing to be a social norm without the stare
Alert, Shaken, Confused ‘
Dressing to Impress when others around
Will I ever meet people like me
A clone of my own to understand my struggles
Cannot be easy fighting this battle alone
Alert, Shaken, Confused
Will there be a cure
Staying silent with my wondering eyes is suffocating
Wanting to scream and shout of my stance of awareness
Emotions thrown all over the place
Staring directly in the eyes of others without reason
Don’t want to care of what others think
Alert, Shaken, Confused
I am unique creative weirdo who fails to express herself
Communication is harder than it is
Wishing to numb emotions to not care
A need to act like no one is watching
My own company should be enough
Forcing energy on other social norms
Alert, Shaken, Confused.
