I look at my reflection And I haven't grown, The same eyes, wrought with boredom-- Makes me wonder what part of me was sold.
I hear the sound of blood flow As my heart thrums in a simpering rhythm; It gives me an assurance that I live, But makes me question whether I'm truly alive?
I feel a slumber has taken hold, It's got me where it hurts most; I can't move away from the pain, And that scares me!
A painful sleep, never waking, never dreaming, Just suspended in simple stillness... This dull affliction makes me wonder, Will I ever remember what it's like to be awake?
