Sad because you feel too much Or mad because you can't feel a thing. Greener grass beckons, And you wave to it longingly. Love the rise, Hate the fall. Melodramatic monotone of monotony. Perishable Plateau. Whisk me away into infinity. Dead on arrival. Dead to the world. Dead as a doornail. Stuff me back inside my body Like clothes in a suitcase. I fit. I promise.

to feel or not to feel
Sad because you feel too much Or mad because you can't feel a thing. Greener grass beckons, And you wave to it longingly. Love the rise, Hate the fall. Melodramatic monotone of monotony. Perishable Plateau. Whisk me away into infinity. Dead on arrival. Dead to the world. Dead as a doornail. Stuff me back inside my body Like clothes in a suitcase. I fit. I promise.
