Inner Voices Conflict


Sometimes I get lonely,

I want to hangout with my friends.

 

However

there is an issue with this.

 

I don’t want to bug my

best friend,

 

because

 

I don’t want to seem needy,

and I don’t want..

 

I don’t think  he should worry

about me.

Or care anyways.

 

Then people like them,

I just don’t want to deal with it.

 

Other people have bigger

 

issues

 

and I don’t want to make it worse on them.

 

Also

I don’t want to hear other people’s issues

 

all the time.

 

I don’t know anymore.

 

I want to play my music.
