Reflection part 2

People I want to talk to
Be open and truthful to
Yet most just walk away
Some I have not seen in over ten years counting today

These people bring me grief
Emotionally robbed beyond belief
Cake and presents are never enough
A consistent empty feeling, life is tough

Numbing myself yet the feeling will never last
I try to have fun, making every day a blast
Since childhood I have hated to be alone
A fact only a few have ever known

Not many can ease the agony in my beating heart
Which sets them very much worlds apart
But I am grateful for everything in my life
Even for a heart issue that gave me a wake up call yet hit me like a knife

It opened my eyes
Made me realize
So much to learn
Everything I want to accomplish and yearn

People do care
Even if I am unaware
Long ago I lost reality
So I lack the clarity

To see what is in front of my eyes
Constantly I view the world with a disguise
Nothing really seems real
As I have at times lost the ability to feel

Everything turns into a blur
As if it never did occur
I block so much out
Since I was young and used to scream and shout

Opinions and assumptions
Uneven presumptions
Something is always in the way
The high can never stay
