Pedestal


Not a poem but small rant, just felt like posting

-

 
I feel so far away from everyone. Like they're scared to touch me or talk to me or anything. they feel like they'll fuck up and ill leave.
 
i dont know what it is but i feel like im put on a pedestal around my friends
 
and no not the popularity pedestal with happiness and just a lot of compliments (even though we all compliment each other)
 
but this "take care of her." pedestal.
 
i feel toxic.
 
no one needs to do that and if they are then I'm toxic because- i just am.
