not
feeling, trapped
in a void of no
emotion only
blackness
when i wake
each day.
dreading waking
knowing that
i can't feel
what others
feel, knowing
i'm not like
them, always
in a dark place
with no way
to escape it,
no way to make
it fade. never
knowing what's
going to happen
or what already
has happened.
nothing is ever
the same when
i wake except
the blackness
filling my head.
