Quiet little cry boy

Expend so much, try to

Expand this little circle of mine.

This little dot I have, 

It starts here.

Here.

Then I battle these demons within me, oh, 

Demons, demons,

Metaphorical of course. 

These that fly, or swim, or... Walk in my head? My mind? Heart and mind.

All to say, HI! 

HELLO KIND SIR/MADAM

Allow me to play the fool to get this friendship going. Allow me to dance and doodle and derogate, so that you may like me just a little more. A little more than you would a stranger, please. 

I'll sing, don't worry! I'll share all the bite-sized pieces of truth with you, no, no, it doesn't hurt me at all.

No, no. 

All smiles, all light-hearted. 

Then, fuck- 

This term of endearment ends abruptly and I struggle to give you a ring. 

Because

I'm more afraid of rejection 

than

loneliness.
