Curious. What does your SOS look or sound like?

Because there were many times I felt like sending it...but either I never did or no one saw it for what it was...or they just missed it because they were focusing on something...

Like a signal of just wanting to get away from something or someone or maybe when you're about to have a panic attack or maybe you just need to go due to some reason you can't say and require the distraction or help of someone else

I posted it about 3 hours ago. My voice veiled by poetry and song. I hide with smiley emojis.
I bury my thoughts on a tiny 3x6" screen.
Down another shot, max out the volume to drown out my scream.

My emotions reflect off the screen,
They pour from my eyes,
Seep from my veins,
And I'm blinded by the intensity of "feelings."
Keeping them hidden, I do my best,
But in the end,
They're exposed for all to see.
Naked and in your face,
Just like me-
Take it, or leave it.

When I write, my inspiration comes to me in a whisper.
Could be because I've had a bad, or an amazing day.
Or it could be because I've listened to a song that touched me,
And just won't go away.
Could be because you touched me,
Made me cry, laugh, or smile.
It is possible, that I'm feeling up, or even down,
Surfing on the clouds, or underwater, trying not to drown.
My words convey my feelings,
And are not necessarily about you.
Just something that I'm dealing,
Or at the moment, going through.
I don't sit and analyze,
My every waking thought.
I'm just me being me,
Not someone or something that is naught.

Kelly.
