Unselfish

Sometimes I need quiet too, time to sit with uncomfortable emotions
Sometimes I need to just listen and not be there for everyone else
Sometimes walking away is me shutting down old behaviour
Sometimes I just need to shut up & tune out
Sometimes not talking is just my way of processing what has already been spoken about
I'm not perfect, I have issues that sometimes take time to break down
Sometimes I'll act out, it's not a show...
I'm human and there's things that are new to me too
It's high way up here on others perches, please let me down,
please see me as the human I am
please, let me just be
(It'll only be for a little while, I just need some time)
