A blade twisting through my gut
You look so alive.
With sweaty palms and shifty eyes
I stumble over every syllable.
How do you always look so calm?
When I cannot keep from shaking.
Are you hiding your ailments?
No
you don’t feel a thing do you.
To you I am just a rock
Inanimate, ugly, and dead.

"How do you always look so calm?

This part, so very enjoyable and relatable. I always get the feeling that people are more in control than I am. It's hard to be ... I don't know, my mind isn't thinking!

This was a great write though, I enjoyed reading this so much! Yet, the ending, well, just remember you're NOT a rock or, well, etc...  You ARE talented writer though, I would ejoy to read more if you have more to post...

Thanks a bunch for sharing, it was a pleasurable read
