poem: Inhabited/Inhibited

My eyes are feeling so heavy today.

So heavy I cannot see a thing,

like an outsider I am.

I do not want to stand today.

I want to close myself and become invisible,

to everyone’s eyes.

To everyone that is surrounding me.

…There are no more words to say.

I want to close my eyes forever.

Please don’t talk! Please don’t speak and don’t look at me!

I want to breath in, all the silence until I am stuffed with it.

Until I am released…

Then I will be able to open my eyes again.

New eyes. New images. Calm breathing.

But until then, I will have my eyes closed.
