A Place To Be Myself

I want to hide

In a special place

Covered by padded walls

A place

Where I could run

Throw myself

Against walls

And fall

To the floor

Without hurting myself

An insulated room

Away

From the norms

Where I could scream

My head off

Without bothering

Another living soul

I just want some time

Need some time

To not be myself

To

Let

Go

To not be reserved

To not be in check

To lose myself

To insanities

For an hour

Or two

Without risk

Of hurting myself

Or causing distress

To anyone

Else

Who could be

Around me

My Particular Brand

The older I get

The more I fall into

My particular brand

Of insanities

Insecurities a plenty

Second guessing

Every move

Every action

Every everything

That happens to me

Around me

Unsure

On how the world

Truly operates

Questioning

If I know what’s going on

If I actually know

Or am I misreading

Not understanding

Everything

Around me

Letting clouded perceptions

Slowly lose grip

On what

Remains

Of my

Sanity
