Welcome To My World

As a little kid

People used to tell me

How they would love

T0 get in my head

And see where my

Questions

Ideas

Thoughts

Answers

Come from

I bet they thought it would be

A great place

I didn't show them

And now I know why

I didn't

What would I say?

Welcome to my world

Where I everything I do

I question

Everything I say

I question

Everything I share

I question

Was that weird to say?

Do I sound like a know it all?

Do I sound like a little kid?

What do they think of me?

Welcome to my world

The world of biting my nails

And tapping fingers

Because my world

Is fragile

And that's the type of safety

I need

Welcome to my world

Where there are more worries

Anxious thoughts

Then ideas

And answers

Welcome to my world

Where sometimes

I can't breathe

I can't reason

I can't think

I can't

I wish I had

Control

Over my thoughts

My thoughts

That swarm my mind

During anytime

Of silence

Or stillness

Welcome to my world

I bet now

You want to leave

And never come back

  • I Love Lemonade

    You tiptoe around

    Your feelings

    Keep them in a bag

    With a zipper

    And zip them up

    You say you're like lemonade

    You can be sweet

    But you can be sour

    And people told you

  • Vanilla Ice Cream

    Everyone likes

    Vanilla ice cream

    But chocolate 

    Is better

    So they take chocolate

    And the vanilla ice cream

    Just sits there

    And melts

    Until it's just a puddle

    Everyone likes
