I Dont Feel Alive
I don’t feel alive he said.
What do you do for fun? I asked.
Nothing.
What do you like to do?
He shook his head ‘no”.
Who are your friends?
I don’t have any, he told me.
Who do you play with?
No one.
What gives you joy?
What do you mean?
What makes you happy?
Nothing.
Here is my advice, I tell him.
Do everything you can until you find something you LOVE to do.
Then do that!
He rolls his eyes.
