I was obviously overcome with anxiety.
They notice I am staring again
Focusing too intently on conversation
But not the words
Only unsaid connotations
Burning in my ears and brain

Once so far from truth
And now only farther
I lock myself
Inside my brain

Retreat to the ringing
Persisting in my temples
There is comfort in my pain
It soothes
My life's meaning
