I'm not the type
to survive
in crowds.

With so many people
the air closes in.
I'm lost.

Lost to the waves,
the roiling waves
of society,
people;
judging people;
biased people;
cruel people;
people with pasts;
people with futures;
people with voices
that I don't want to hear.

Too many;
    too many;
        too many;
too many voices.

Crowding; surrounding;
the great agglomeration
of thoughts
and opinions.

So many people,
so many voices,
so little room,
so little breath.
I'm lost,
suffocating in the
mass of people;
the crowd.

I'm not the type
to survive
in crowds.
