Who am I? That’s the question everyone seems to ask themselves. I woke up today with a full plan in my head. What I was going to do, What I was going to say, But something, just doesn’t seem right. I usually do have thoughts like this, They remain solitary and trapped in my mind Today however, it’s different... Why is today different? Am I overthinking? Two questions at once, Something is definitely wrong, My mind seems to be a million miles away And yet, my body is still here. Time stands still, It’s as if i’m trapped in the moment. Yet I know it’s moving faster than ever 11:00, 1:00, 4:00 What is my purpose today? I have a pen and paper in front of me, but they seem so foreign in my hand I can feel the beating of my heart, but what is this feeling? The minutes keep ticking as I glance towards my clock It’s quiet, the clouds move in a way that I wish I could Gliding slowly, going where the wind blows... Why did that thought enter my head? I’m in an empty zone, A blank sheet A fake smile and laugh But what is real? It doesn’t seem cruel though, I can control it, I’m sure I can The world around me is spinning I feel connected to everything, but Am I going crazy? Only one thought seems to hold on tight... Who am I?
