Antisocial

I am now aware, aware of the beast outside,
Powerful, flourished with honey and abundance aside,
I’m so afraid, maybe it won’t accept me,
An overwhelming rejection expected to be.
 
Being so closed in my hub,
Thinking maybe it will devour my flesh with ease,
But may be it’s so kind to nurture me,
It shies away thinking that i loathe him so much.
 
I have no clue, what should i do,
The external is so frightening too,
Ain’t sure if i have to give in and be free,
Be full of courage to grab the key.
 
I’m so dissolved in this circle,
My inner child wasn’t taught to be open,
To Let the beast come in maybe it would find refuge,
The beast doesn’t give up it still knocks.
 
For safety lies in the eyes of the beholder,
Our minds are all clouded with negativity,
We’re all of the same kind,
So we will never be the same.
 
It seems like a curse was cast upon me,
Not being able to attract and accept my beast,
For we were meant for each other,
Till infinity tears us apart.
 
Our nature settles us apart,
One needs to eat, one needs to explore,
Contrary to that, our union would conquer the whole world,
Vulnerability, is the worst choice to be the best.
 
Fear of death is like a storm tormenting a dhow,
You see, we can’t be together now,
Who will convince us to be together?,
It’ll never happen unless the cycle is broken.
 
It’ll take forever to come out of my cage,
It seems like being human is to be a slave,
Humans, right? So fragile but we’re our own fave.
