feel.

tell me:

do you see the sadness when you look deep into my eyes?

do you see the waves of an ocean that are about to cry?

do you feel the mountains being moved through a blink in time?

tell me

do you feel the pain that moves those mountains?

the sorrow and guilt that makes others antsy

do you understand why heart break results in tears?

the inability to trust others consistently floods my mind 

do you expect every scary situation to bring fear? 

what is scary to you brings no fright to me 

the waves crash and recede 

the sorrow comes and goes with instability 

and the happiness comes in cycles, only to be taken away again

the water has made me numb

am i even swimming anymore?

tell me

when you’re lost in the ocean, treading for life

when you’re lost in the world, yearning to be seen

when you’re all alone, contemplating the masses

when you’re by yourself, wrapped in your head

just answer this:

does the hurt and sadness at least make you feel something? 

Do you even feel anything?

i don’t. 

and that’s the saddest part.
