Agony

Lately it is only agony
desperation
nothing is the same anymore
 inside of me
and different is not better
and the weirdest of it all 
is that every day is the same thing
but i dont recognize anything
its like i can never see
see, listen, feel.
never 
its like a barrier
between me and the world
an transparent barrier
because i see
but i dont feel 
anything
thats what seems to be inside of me
the heart is beating
im here
missing
that i do understand
not only the people, but the smells
the smells, colors, tastes.
where are they? Why cant i see?
see, listen, feel.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
