It hurt
Always longing for your attention
And falling into emptiness
Nothing surrounding me
But a vast cavern
And when people draw near
Their voices always seemed
To be echoing
from a long way off
So often it seems
Your face was turned away
And then there was the look of heavy disapproval
That mades my tiny body
Quake
Nowhere at all is there a place
Where I can find
Comfort
Soothing
Regulation
No sense of safety
In being myself
And so my fascination with darkness
Grows
Until the inner storm
Brewing deep inside ofvthe void
Is all I know
Walking through a world of shattered glass
I must be so so careful
That the monster living here
Inside the flood
That wants my blood
Does not claim
My soul
