Already Dead

Today, I lay here and think of everything I have to say,

I can’t seem to find the words.

So many thoughts cross my mind,

The past

The present

The future

So many things that have come to pass.

As I lay here,

I question

How I feel,

Who I am,

Why I’m still here?

I can’t seem to even fathom an answer

I lay here just to think

And what I get

Is a mind full of

Broken dreams,

Shattered wings

And unspoken things.

Love

Friends

Family

School

All things that cross my mind

But as I lay here

All I seem to think about is how I feel

Confused

Anxious

Depressed

Happy

Angry

All emotions that cross through my body

As I lay here

Already dead.

through the confusion, you seem to be in touch if not, aware, of what's happening inside

This is awesome! I like your play on words and structure throughout this.
Thank you for suggesting this. Well constructed indeed

I like this poem. I like each set of lines making the poem stronger. Sometime we can think our self into craziness. Last line gave a twist to the poem. A excellent poem. Thank you.

these thoughts and emotions you have, they all defy the state of death.
You're much alive, my friend. Though the fire of life maybe flickering and fading because of the blowing winds, soon, I hope, that fire will be rekindled soon for you.
