Why this fear
of facing yourself?
being alone...
for once,
without the company of
any
one
else.
Why this fear
of being hidden away
in a place where you can consider
your thoughts, your actions
and the words you constantly
say...
Speaking over yourself
speaking over your family
speaking over your friends
speaking over the issues
you’ve created that extends
into the dome that
rests on a ceiling you constructed
where every distraction
lies in between
the image you’ve made
and the person you are
interested in becoming...
Why are you afraid
of being along with
your own thoughts?
Are you uncomfortable
with the person you are?
Be.
Still.
Enjoy the awareness of you
and if you don’t...
then
look deeper
though uncomfortable,
to see what
can be changed
so that you do.
Don’t hide behind
the noise of meaningless
conversations,
social events
that offer no type of solutions
but just distractions
to keep
you occupied,
busy lights and voices
that distracts from the
substance that lies on the inside.
Become acquainted with your being.
What have you been using
voluntarily
to prevent you from seeing
into the space where you would meet
yourself for the first time.
Voluntarily blind-
voluntarily living a lie.
maybe if you got to know
who looks back at you, you would
stop all this senseless running
and
.halt.
Right here;
in this place
where these questions
now listen.
For your reply.
