          My living's still in secrets;
          perceived by no one right,
          by proud believer witches
          held by filters at sight,
          whom I've communicated;
          often as an earthquake,
          for benefits they acquired
          and losses I partake;

          cunning yet careless,
          friendly yet bored,
          loud yet senseless,
          my verses they hoard;
          for treasures to theirs --
          my rotten leftovers;
          in no content but pride
          they covered unbothered;
          boastful but timid,
          pleased but unworthy,
          plain but so desperate,
          for attentions I buried;

          I shouldn't have fallen;
          into pitfalls skin-bare,
          maybe mine yet alone
          'least I'm free from their stares;
          their stare-forged opinions,
          their gaze-drawn delusions,
          with dark auras smoke-screaming,
          for beguiling my illusion;

          but still kept curiosity;
          for their disloyal identity
          'wished this leaving directs paradise
          of self-seclusion intimacy.
