Trying to establish when exactly being alone started to terrify me to the point of tears. I don’t mean everyone leaving me and having no friends or boyfriend kind of alone. I mean being left by myself with nothing but my own mind to occupy me for an hour or two.
When did I become so dependent on those around me to stop me from retreating into myself? So heavily reliant on the flow of superficial conversation to stop the voices within?
I fear I’ve been played, just like so many times before. What I thought to be genuine has turned out to be fake. Did I ease your boredom for a little while? Do you like knowing that you have me right where you want me?
Must stop wearing my heart on my sleeve.
