I cannot I can’t feel
 At all.
 There is nothing,
 My mind is blank.
 Writing is getting hard,
 My words just 
Feed into each other,
 Therearenospacestomoveinthismess I can’t focus longer than
 A couple minutes,
 If that,
 It’s like everything is a dream;
 Now and again
 I wake up 
Into reality,
 Then slowly 
Drift away 
Into the nothingness. I cannot make out what you are saying,
 Scream at me;
 I don’t understand. Anger takes over me,
 And a headache 
 That hasn’t budged for days,
 Suddenly rips out of me
 Exploding into the air
 Covering everything within 5meters;
 With stardust
 And gun powder. 
(I can’t tell the difference) You’re the only thing 
That makes me feel
 A little more alive
 At the moment,
 But I can’t even 
 Get close enough 
 To your face,
 Without shaking 
And then collapsing 
To the floor. I’ll smoke cigarettes
 And get drunk;
 Just to be able
 To hear the whispers
 In my ear 
And to block out 
the muffled voices 
in my mind.

I cannot I can’t feel
 At all.
 There is nothing,
 My mind is blank.
 Writing is getting hard,
 My words just 
Feed into each other,
 Therearenospacestomoveinthismess I can’t focus longer than
 A couple minutes,
 If that,
 It’s like everything is a dream;
 Now and again
 I wake up 
Into reality,
 Then slowly 
Drift away 
Into the nothingness. I cannot make out what you are saying,
 Scream at me;
 I don’t understand. Anger takes over me,
 And a headache 
 That hasn’t budged for days,
 Suddenly rips out of me
 Exploding into the air
 Covering everything within 5meters;
 With stardust
 And gun powder. 
(I can’t tell the difference) You’re the only thing 
That makes me feel
 A little more alive
 At the moment,
 But I can’t even 
 Get close enough 
 To your face,
 Without shaking 
And then collapsing 
To the floor. I’ll smoke cigarettes
 And get drunk;
 Just to be able
 To hear the whispers
 In my ear 
And to block out 
the muffled voices 
in my mind.
