Hello
Hello, my name is fear
I use humor as a defense mechanism
when I'm uncomfortable.
Hello, my name is disaster
I cover up for this with victim mentality
delicately coated with a fine glaze of selfishness
Hello, my name is the past
You can see it in the way I distance myself
from all the least favorite parts of myself
tuck them away into the darkest corners of my mind
Hello, my name is
whatever you want me to be
