"at the end of everything, hold on to anything"


i move aimlessly,

blankly,

like an airplane

on autopilot.


i stretch my arms out

to feel something,

anything.


the world is quiet

and empty.


i do not know that it is there.


it does not know that i am here.


my eyes dart

back and forth,

sheathed by 

closed eyelids.


i cry out into the

darkness, nothing but

silence echoing back.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

there is nobody here

and i cannot

make a sound.


please, 

somebody please

wake me up.

 

i

can't

do

it

alone.
