Some times

All I want to do

Is nothing

My head

hurts

My mind

Is empty

My heart

Is silent

My throat

Hurts

My eyes

Droop

My body

Won't sleep

My lungs

Won't breathe

My stomach

Hungers

My mouth

Won't eat

My tongue

Is tied

My lips

Are chapped

There's a lump

In my throat

My eyes

Won't cry

My mouth

Won't speak

My voice

Is so loud

In my head

A l o n e

My soul

Is screaming

Unheard

L o s t

Everything hurts

Nothing hurts

I can't breathe

I a m a m e s s

I a m s o t i r e d
