Hideaway
to hide away,
to hide such raw feelings,
hiding them
from the view
of triggering moments.
give me a world
where the atmosphere
is not so harsh,
where these moments
come without a charge.
to hide away—
let me be.
i am not made for those times,
and i would like to say,
“well done,”
but i feel it,
and that is not my kind of fun.
