Comfort


 

Creating in your mind what you know you need.

Over anything else, it is what you crave.

More than your self dignity, your friends or your actions.

Fighting against your fears of what people know about you.  

Omnipresent weights on your heart, crushing every part of your being.

Ready to inject your insecurities into the people who can’t understand.

Taking it all for granted when you push them away.
