#61 (mashed potatoes)

everything is bland
tasteless
going out is like staying in
with more stress
and no pajamas.
people ask how I am
I know my smile is not convincing
I wish I could tell them
that I'm sick
and they would nod understandingly
but when your brain is sick
it becomes everyone's business.
they ask about your nightmares
and obsessions
compulsions
suicidal thoughts
and when you tell them
they leave.
