SUFFOCATING
I feel like my emotional stability is falling apart
Becoming wobbly like when wheels fall off of a grocery cart
We joke around about becoming alcoholics
But I'm actually starting to enjoy the alcohol induced mind tricks
It's been weeks but I still don't feel ready
It's hard to sort through emotions that still grow unsteady
I'm aware that others have gone through this
but...their experiences I'd rather dismiss
In this class I present the pathways but feel the effects
Depending on when, between the two my behavior selects
It makes sense that inflammation leads to a dysphoric feeling
Freshman year when I was injured, I felt like such a weakling
Sleep for me has always been an escape
It's not a place I go to be a hero with a cape
I mean dreams are an interesting thing to experience
But you realize when you wake up that it was just a fantasy of deviance
You have to continue dealing with life when you awake
This is disheartening to me because there's only so much I can take
Back to sleep I'll go to get away
Recharging the emotional batteries for another day
After a long day with people, my neutrality starts to degenerate
Despite always talking to them, feeling their emotions is what I hate
I feel the anxiety, sadness, and the nerve-wracking
Feeling what I'm not meant to is extremely suffocating
I find everyone's feelings intensely overwhelming
Especially because the levels of negativity are constantly fluctuating
It's unfortunate that I only feel the dark emotions
That fact gives me multiple personality notions
I must've been a bad person in a previous life
This body needs a blade, some scissors, or a knife
I was shitty in that life and am in this one
Having purgatory as a life can't be fun
Explains why demons live internally
Like being in heaven, hell is also eternally
The actions that could come out would make you hide under the bed
Wanna come hang out with the walking catastrophe, go ahead.
