Dont Let the Zombies Come!
I have an problem
like a rodent in my house
im infested
by sickness
depression
speaks through my words
heartache
seeps through my pours
i can not live
not like this
i move slow
my feet dragging
the proud stance i one held
gone
disappeared
like a slug i move
no back bone
i walk
the sun shines
but my world is gray
people love
but i just want them to go away
no one wants me
not the light
not the dark
my eyes are dark
circles surround them
from lack of sleep
where am i walking
have i lost my car?
my mind wanders too far
and i appear to be
a zombie
halt!
where is my heart
i feel no beat from within
silence...
my soul no longer speaks
im so weak
by letting this infestation win
i wash away in the rain
i float away in the wind
like nothing
like the nothing i have become
....am i nothing?
Inspired by The Great Gary La Buda's poem "Truth Never Dies"
