Sometimes

For Want of a Better Title

By Paul StewartPublished 4 years ago • 1 min read

I sometimes wish I never felt anything at all

I don't mean to sound dramatic, no not at all

I just wish the feelings would stop for a while

Then I could have peace in my mind for a while

Emotions are tiring, so is my crazy wiring

Trying to navigate through life, avoiding strife

*

I sometimes wish I never felt anything at all

I sometimes wish my overactive brain would stall

I find myself envying those who don't feel anything

Then I imagine what it's like to feel nothing

Emotions are draining, so is my crazy wiring

Trying to traverse through life, pain is rife

*

Thank you for reading.

Not how I am feeling right now. But, there are times when things get too much. I am sure it's something we can all related to.
