Some days
I simply don't exist

My body moves
But I'm far away

I text with friends
But my mind is elsewhere

I eat and drink
But I'm still empty

I show emotion
But I feel nothing

I have a reflection
But I don't recognise them

I'm still me
But I'm not

Alive in theory
But dead inside
Cold
Hollow
Dark
A vessel

She wants you to talk to her
But she won't talk back
She wants you to ask to hang out
But she'll come up with an excuse to stay home
She wants to get better
But she won't put in the efforts

She's screaming for help
But she won't tell you why
She's desperate for someone to listen
But she won't tell you anything
She's feeling all alone
But she'll push you away
