Today
I woke up this morning
With a tightness in my heart
And a numbness in my soul
I can't think today
I can't feel today
I can't function today
I don't understand why
Why can't I think?
Why can't I function?
Why is today so bad?
This is the worst it's been
In a long time
I just want to sleep
Sleep until the pain passes
Sleep until the moon collapses
And the sun explodes
I want to cry
Cry enough to make a new ocean
Or flood the already existing ones
I don't want to talk today
I have nothing really to say
No hellos
No good-byes
Nothing
Mom said it scared her a little
Dad said everyone has bad days
But I don't know
If this is considered a bad day
I'm not cranky
I'm not angry
I'm not happy
Or sad
I'm just....
I guess you could say I'm just *numb
