A World Too Close

A World Too Close

A Poem by Cobblestone Traveler
"

Social anxiety.

The energy of your existence is liquefied
Swimming in the matter of humanity

Reject me from your stream of consciousness

I'm drowning in your social waves

Near or far, you're still here

Polluting my pool with weighted fear

All reserves are depleted and void

All I have now is to avoid.
