Chord Cutter

A feeling is all I am.
That sadness in my gut.
It permeates from everything inside me
But I’ve been told that gut is really my head
I still feel it in my gut.
When I smile, truly smile,
It is when I see her. 
Although I only see her with my eyes shut.
Despite being told  the sight, is really a thought.
I still shut my eyes and see
A feeling is all I am.
I am sick inside 
Alone 
Coping with a promise of  significance,
Broken.
Yearning for the days
Of floating.
I was a fish in a tiny sea once.
Now I am a god in a godless
Universe
A feeling is all I am
