Intentional Disguise

Intentional Disguise

By: Tyler Ross

Have you ever conjectured why I spend most days alone?

Or the reasons I hardly pick up the phone?

Let this be a lesson in paying attention

I’ve got some issues I’m scared to mention

I’m badly bruised from love and it’s feeling inside

With much complication, trying to walk with my head held high

Most days I just try to be by myself

Well aware I’ve created a distance between everyone else

I recognize that it’s safer

I recognize that it’s safer for me that way

I’d rather use evasion as a strategy

Because there isn’t much that impresses me

I will pacify my ideals with some meditation

Because in the end, I care more for substantial conversation

Call me selfish, a hermit, and or a jerk

I’m trying my best to believe it will all just work

Focused on what’s truly right for me

Laughing and still searching for some sanity

Who Needs Isolation Anyway

Who Needs Isolation Anyway

By: Tyler Ross

As I sit in anguish with the world rotating on.

My body is flush and my nerves are cut one by one.

This rush of a thought that keeps me in,

is the cancer rooting itself out expelling from my skin.

Exposed like water frozen into a cube.

As I contemplate all the reasons I was perfect for you.

Distractions come and go, but they may never take

my reality, which I fight against fantasy, I want to escape.

I’m tired, so very tired of feeling this way.

Who needs isolation?

Who needs isolation anyway?
