I told somebody
that I like wearing shades.
I like to wear shades
because it makes me feel like
there is a wall between
the world around and
the world I stand.
It helps me feel okay
walking through crowds.
I hate walking through crowds
but this way,
I feel like I am just
being inside a weird game
in which you are supposed to
walk through crowds
for some unknown reasons.
It’s just a game.
