Too close.

I don’t let a lot of people get too close.
If anything, I’ve become a cloud that’s been struck by sunlight on multiple occasions, these past few weeks.
Floating from one person to the next, flaunting off my dimming rays of light.
That’s how it honestly feels. On the outside, they see this happy-go-lucky guy greeting everyone by their first name, but then crashes towards the end of class, because all of his joie de vivre was provided by an energy drink or sugary confection.
Even when I’m struck with illness, or just not having a good day, I still manage to put on this façade, this morphing countenance, that I’ve grown accustomed to wearing almost every single day.
Don’t assume that that is who I am, when you don’t know me.
