I get in my car and drive away

But I can never escape my thoughts

I’m exhausted laying in bed all day

Scrolling through my phone

Fleeing from myself

The algorithms just feed into my self hate

I look in the mirror at the clothes that I bought

After one wear, I realize they can’t cover up the way I feel

I feel more alone than ever

I’m stuck with myself

I’m stuck in this body

I’m stuck in my mind

My mind is like a parasite that I can’t shake off

I don’t know how to co-exist with it

I only feel drained in this relationship

This leech will be the death of me
