Don't try to get inside my head
For I want
everything,  but nothing
I talk to the mirror,
but my reflection isn't there
I can feel my soul seethe, scratching against
my sanity's door

I feel five
emotions at once,
does that mean I almost feel nothing?
Neurotic is my being
Nerves higher in enthusiasm
than Mount Kilimanjaro
steal me now or forever hold your peace
in your jar of perpetual
silence
I tap steadily on the glass,
stuck in the back of my psyche

The Return isn't fair
all thoughts disappear
I sniff for a lost cause,
but the effect is still there

Am I a woman of certainty?
