Still Here

There is nothing left

You corroded my mind

All I wanted was answers and proof

I get laughed at even by myself in my sleep

It’s all empty and falling apart

So fragile a simple breeze could sweep it all away

Grasping at straws isn’t enough to build an argument

I should give up but I can’t

It’s my North Star

It took me by my shoulders and left me hollow

Now I wander like an empty shell with nothing but anger leading the way

Or maybe at some point you actually cared about me?

It’s torn to pieces and I’m left scrambling doing the hard lifting trying to put it back together

I’m not even a person anymore

Closer to leftovers than a human

Maybe you forgot me

This is not me

It never was

And yet it was me,

more than “I” am
