How come I can never feel the same?
Always these differing thoughts
These feelings of emptiness
These thoughts of pain and loneliness
But the sudden jolts of joy
The bursts of energy and imagination

Why do they never go away?
I am always trapped
In my own head
In my own self-destruction

I can never escape it
It is persistently digging in my soul
Locking me away in a prison cell
Something I can only imagine
Yet never describe
Always there
But never tangible

Am I broken?
Am I damaged?
Or am I just human?
