Trigger Warning: Depression
Suspended in unfeeling void
Voices muffled
Flavours dulled
A solid ghost
Where am I?
Who am I?
I exist but I’m not alive
Just eat, drink, sleep, survive
Someone’s looking at me
A question, they can’t know
I consciously twist my mouth
To approximate a smile
They seem sad
How do I respond?
Empathy is a foreign concept
How can I help when I’m hollow?
Great poem. Deep.
Glad it spoke to you 🙂
