peculiar mannerisms

Being too sensitive is not for the faint-hearted

We all peer at life through individual prisms

I know now when my thin skin started

It was watching your peculiar mannerisms

 

Your peculiar mannerisms are legion

The way you chew your food is a sight

Your body language is a whole religion

Those facial expressions a thing of the night

 

You've left me wide open to the elements

My epidermis has all but disappeared

I can barely bring myself to look over the fence

The neighbours now think me quite weird

 

Your peculiar mannerisms are legion

The way you chew your food is a sight

Your body language is a whole religion

Those facial expressions a thing of the night

 

My therapist suggests better eye contact and stress

With you I need not more eye contact but less

 

Your peculiar mannerisms are legion

The way you chew your food is a sight

I'm not being fecitious, but it does allow one to pause and absorb before moving down to the next part

Perhaps something to say 'scroll down to next part' ? Then again maybe nothingness adds to the mystery Dunno

I'm not having a go at you Simon. No-one on WOL takes me seriously

Well I sort of like it Simon, but the format is all over the place. Maybe it is intentional...
