There seems to be no more blood in my veins.
My arms – spaghetti
OK – so I’m not ultra-depressed.
I’m not sad… I’m not happy.
I am nothing but a “corporate drone”
Walking and breathing…
But soooo tired!!!
Every day, for weeks now
Soooo tired!!!
They say I used to be “out of CONTROL”
Yet, CONFINED within the CAGE of corporate CONFORMITY…
…my only state of being is:
Soooo tired!!!
“I am a shell of my former self”
I just want to be happy again
I want to have ENERGY
STRENGTH – not a walking zombie
The poster-child for lithium
Strangely enough, nobody seems to notice…
…because now I blend in
Before, people DID notice me
Now – nobody seems to notice that I feel like my SOUL is slowly dripping right out of my body
Is this better than actual depression?
I used to have FUN – and EMOTION – and LIFE
