Claustrophobia

 

Why do I need to hide away?

When it’s the couple that raised me that’s present

When it’s the people I know that’s there 

Why do I need to hide away?

Why do I feel claustrophobic?

Around those I miss; places, people

When it’s finally me and my habitat

Why do I feel claustrophobic?

I thought it was all about me?

Their coming and going, their activities

Their intentions, their hearts

I thought it was all about me?

Was I selfish or were they?

Why do I have to blame myself?

Was I stupid to let them in and to let me go out?

Was I selfish or were they?

Whose life am I caring for?

Mine or those of others?

Because mine doesn’t deserve ten euros

Whose life am I caring for?
