Days like these
I say
I feel dead inside
but no
I have no feelings
I'm numb
like I
ran out of time and I wasn't finished
and now there's nothing I can do
I would have felt regret
if there were something I could have done
to stop it
but that was impossible so instead
I just feel nothing
except a faint illness
and an incurable fatigue
so truly tired
an indescribable overwhelming sense of stopping trying
and stopping pushing against it
so that my body
all of a sudden
feels like floating
