Writing Exercise #4

The 2 A.M Writer

A shadow on the wall

A ghost amongst the crowd

It seems like everyone else wants the crown and I only want the isolation

I just want my fix of loneliness

Just get away from me, yet stay here

My social life a Bipolar compass

Spin the wheel of anxiety and see where we land today

Ropes pulling on my switches like no tomorrow

I want love but I just want to be in a hole

My libido a thermometer in a Michigan springtime

Blacking out the sun becomes so boring and painful

But pulling back the curtains is a nightmare so constant

I want to be the Fly, yet I want to be the light to moths

Ego and deprecation a ever switching output

Goddamn is this all tiring
