A master of disguise
A mask for every day
Slipping in, and out, of character
Interlocked within the fray
Consumed by a past
Filled with agonizing echoes
Afraid to show my scars
Reluctant, reticent bellows
Ringing fills my ears
Anxiety-laden soul
Weighed down with trepidation
An inescapable black hole
Overwhelmed with panic
Struggling to breathe
Too tight around the collar
Chaotic voices, unsheathed
©️Unapologetically Me
