invading the thoughts and idea of others
hoping to gleam some sense of belonging
creating a connection through similar methods of expression
some I dismiss and move on with them none-the-wiser
others I visit over and over with them none-the-wiser
I find myself exploring new worlds
moving beyond my own thoughts and ideas
hoping to gleam some type of inspiration
something I can connect to that is outside of myself
sometimes there is nothing I like so I move on, them none-the-wiser
other times there is much I like so I visit, them none-the wiser
the anonymity is exhilarating
a breath of fresh air I can't get enough of
but
I itch to truly connect
I wish to participate
no longer stand on the outside
like I am forced to in my real world
but
to put myself out there
a follower
a friend
torments me as it does in my real world
the anonymity is exasperating
a taste of poison I can't get rid of
I find myself exploring new worlds
enjoying the thoughts and ideas that others share
hoping to gleam some form of belonging
creating a connection through a comment or two might be a start
some with words of encouragement before I move on
but
I itch to truly connect
I wish to participate
no longer stand on the outside
like I am forced to in my real world
but
to put myself out there
a follower
a friend
torments me as it does in my real world
the anonymity is exasperating
a taste of poison I can't get rid of
I find myself exploring new worlds
enjoying the thoughts and ideas that others share
hoping to gleam some form of belonging
creating a connection through a comment or two might be a start
some with words of encouragement before I move on
others with words of praise and enjoyment each time I visit
I find myself exploring a world
where anonymity can roam free
being a follower, a friend and the like
does not equal exposure and torment as it does in my real world
and yet
social anxiety follows me into cyberspace
