We don’t always feel happy, or sad and sometimes not at all. A poem, prob without rhythm |
So what is this feeling that doesn’t feel? That makes too tired to bother about the next meal? That makes me stare at something interesting and not care, As if anything I liked suddenly lost its flair. It isn’t negative, or positive, or neutral, The pain it causes dull, numb, not brutal. It’s like a void, but not necessarily cold, More like my emotions and perception fold. Like a paper, they crumble, and force themselves small, It’s quiet, and empty when I ignore their call. Sometimes I feel sick, sometimes it’s relieving, So is this symptom a cause for cheer or grieving? Because often it’s useful to shut it all down, To carry not a smile, but neither a frown. At the same time it pains me thrice as much, When it’s impossible for me to break free from its clutch. It’s okay when I choose to enter it myself, In such cases it’s just another book on the shelf, It bothers me more that I am required to do so, That people I trust deliver me that blow. And even now it feels as if this doesn’t describe it right, It’s a weird feeling that can’t be placed in the correct light, Even so, it seems to take away anything bright, Like something that comes and says “/time set night”. |
