Introverted

I don’t hate you
I just need some time alone
I’m sorry I can’t stay
I’d rather be at home
I know you feel the same
I can see it in your eyes
Can’t make eye contact but can see right through their lies
Why don’t you tell me how you feel?
I’m tired of waiting, I want this to be real
I’m nervous, observing
So determined it’s concerning
I’m a burden and I’m hurting
Go easy on me I’m learning
Is it ever going to be enough?
I know it’s not easy but it shouldn’t be this tough
I don’t hate you
I just need some time alone
I’m sorry I can’t stay
I’d rather be at home
I try to speak but my mind is deep in thought
They’re calling me back to earth like I’m an astronaut
