My Virtual Reality
The App Store is like my passport
I go wherever I want whenever I please
Most importantly not only that but I get to be whoever I want
Custom made characters picking the features for my virtual reality
That I couldn’t pick for myself in a reality that isn’t virtual
Clothes custom made living my best virtual life without having to change my “persona”
I even made online friends….cool right?
Until it sits with me once I snap back into my reality that isn’t virtual and think
“Why don’t I meet these kinds of people in real life?”
My virtual world is a world where I can be realistically myself
Irony I call it
Because in my reality that is not virtual I am antisocial
“Quiet?” They say
“Why don’t you speak much?” They say
“You must be shy.” They say
I say
Nah I just prefer not to speak to YOU
However in another dimension…(my virtual reality that is)
Not a question in sight
Not judgement I can not control alt delete
Not a style that I can’t rock
Not a comment that I do not feel intimidated to reply to
In a sense in my virtual reality I feel free?
To express my I.D.Ks
My L.M.A.Os
My “ Aight bruh I.F.W.Ys”
But TBH my App store is not really a passport
It’s just…
I guess it’s just an easy ticket out like Spirit airlines
I guess
Because in my virtual reality I have the ability to not question myself
When you walk fix your slouch I say
There has to be someone judging you right now I say
This reality that is not virtual does not have a “open new tab” and refresh
And that is the problem
My app store is not A reality
And that is the problem
This reality is not a game of Subway Surfers you can not just run from your problems
And hide from your fears
I say....I guess
The 1v1 battle is not in the game room it is with myself
