I don’t know anymore, how to feel something again Feels like I’m drifting, lost in outer space, to god knows where Unanchored from everything, yet my chest is heavy, eyes are lifeless Each day repeats itself, every conversation feels hollow, insincere I bury myself in work, not to build, but to forget Laughter doesn’t echo, smiles barely stretch, just motions And if I disappear, would it really matter? It’s not selfish, just silent. Space swallows sound, and maybe it swallows me too. In this silence, I lay dormant— I no longer expect anymore. There’s no pull, no push, just a vast, empty stretch. The stars hang motionless, indifferent and I’m no different

I don’t know anymore
I don’t know anymore, how to feel something again Feels like I’m drifting, lost in outer space, to god knows where Unanchored from everything, yet my chest is heavy, eyes are lifeless Each day repeats itself, every conversation feels hollow, insincere I bury myself in work, not to build, but to forget Laughter doesn’t echo, smiles barely stretch, just motions And if I disappear, would it really matter? It’s not selfish, just silent. Space swallows sound, and maybe it swallows me too. In this silence, I lay dormant— I no longer expect anymore. There’s no pull, no push, just a vast, empty stretch. The stars hang motionless, indifferent and I’m no different
