What is this world?


What is this world I live in?

This isn't home.

I don't recognize this place. 

I've never felt this.

I've never felt unloved.

A place where happiness isn't felt.

We just float around here day by day.

Dead to the world.

There's countless souls, it's like a crypt or purgatory

Just people trying to survive and live

Trying. Not Doing

There's no true happiness.
