On Edge

On edge
People around me
They are atomic bombs
They get close
Trying to hurt me
Their lies
come close
triggering secret rage
I can't talk
I shut my brain off
Their words in my mouth
suffocating peace
the only way out
insanity
In a safe place
where nothing hurts any more
thousand yard stare
I go into a world
Some place I know
Comfortable and alone
No one around me
No sounds
no people
no TV
no radio
no hate wars
to fight anymore
