The bliss of a good day is gone A calm, dull darkness spreads in me I don’t really feel sad I don’t feel scared or worried Neither excited nor happy Actually, I don’t feel much at all I just exist in some twisted, tiresome way My head hurts of bad sleeping habits And too little food And I’m still wearing my tights pants I never had the energy to take them off My house is a mess and my kitchen is weary But how can I clean when I can’t catch the glimpse of an energy boost Not even a hint of a little hopefulness How can I do things when I can barely keep myself awake? My life is good and generally, I’m happy But every time I set foot in this cursed apartment It all comes back to me, like a light switch And suddenly - All that joy is gone And what remains is merely a blanket from the past.
