whispers

what whispers during the day

screams at night

shattering the image

of who i am

the girl i knew

stop telling me

you know how I feel

when all you can see

is a figure

behind foggy glass

you see my reflection

simply observed

but never experienced

i do not ask

to be understood

yet

i ask for acceptance

in my present state

the crumpled

complicated

confusing

burden

i am your worst nightmare

difficulty

disturbance

disruption

staring at you

directly in the eye

i beg to be seen

but you look away

you run

as far as you can get

and still wonder

where i am
