Disconnect
My flesh is suffocating
Smothering my soul
I can feel my bones
Hollow and heavy
My arms;
Fingers;
Legs;
Toes;
Neck;
Skull
I am trapped
Stuck inside a suit
Designed of organic materials
Meat and flesh
Designed to rot away one day
My flesh moves
As if with a mind of its own
As I sit, trapped behind my ribcage
As if my own personal jail
I see
I hear
I speak
Yet i cannot
I am here
But gone
I long for home
As I lay in my bed
A feeling of emptiness
As if floating in space
Drifting through the world
I cannot understand
My soul
My spirit
Gasping for air
Grasping for a tether
Hoping to the gods above
Please don't let this be my demise
My flesh is suffocating
Smothering my soul
I can feel my bones
Hollow and heavy
