Misomania

Ever existed on a substance?
I need caffeine to be myself
I wanted to grow as a person
but that's not interesting enough to write about

Wish I was ordinary sometimes
Normal people sleep at half 11
I'm recognized by those who ignore me
it's a tragic comedy that doesn't want to end

It's a shame I had to quit smoking
it gave me more eloquence than this poem
I should stop f*****g swearing as
it offends those who flinch at the doorbell

Everyone must go home
It's crowded enough in my head
Wish I could let you into my heart
but then the thoughts begin and I can't understand...

So save me from myself and
tell me it's all silliness from me
I want to be sure
Please let me be sure
because everything else
is so stupid and boring to me

I'm gonna be honest here. I really had to fight back crying while reading this, not quite sure why. It hurts so much to let someone in even if we beg for someone to save our selves. And by the way, your eloquence IS your writing.
An agonizing poem, but written so wonderfully.

Where's the grand piano to prop up your mortal remains, budd?(That's a reference to the Wall, in case you didn't get that)
