Trauma

Trauma. 
It’s like blobs in eternity. 
Grappling around with trembling or not. 
Trembling or nothing. 

A nothing day. 
Just a nothing type of flower bud. 
Just a do nothing burden feeling. 
Scrambled clouds happen to me. 

It is called nonexistence. 
Me. 
Has bubbles burbling.
Almost felt like my own. 

Was almost me. 
But I got eclipsed by some friendly nonexistence. 
Shifted like ice cream fell off the cone. 
Splattered like the end. 

Endless week-long shivering. 
Speckled with leftover goosebumps. 
No one called all week. 
It’s almost like trauma. 

Continues.

This sounds miserable for you. I am sorry you have so much to deal with. You write it so I feel it, especially that last stanza.
