I am aware.
Things around me-- within me,
The air, my pulse,
The flicker of a pupil.
Focus…
Light, dark,
The spectrum  of colours--
But I cannot feel.
Sounds,
The static of the un-tuned radio
Then a burst of music,
The babble of a crowd-- or is it in my head?
The morning espresso shot--
Its bad for me,
But its there,
Still lingering bitter on my tongue,
Curling up my taste buds.
I feel heavy.
I exist.
But I no longer feel alive.
April is national poetry writing month. a poem a day for 30 days...
well here goes... Day 5
