Insecure

Réèbah7890 2004 (Lagos)

Narrative
Empty,Unnoticed,
Heart beating fast.
Loud voices inform of whisper.
I can hear them,but can they hear me.

Standing out,
Creepy eyes watching me.
Heart beating fast.
Legs moving on their own.
Barely breathing.

Going back,
To the shadows I'm accustomed to.
Maybe next time,
They will hear me.
