Zombie

I feel as thought life is slipping away from me. I try to grasp it but it falls through my fingers like sand. I’m glad I got to touch it, I knew it existed if only for a split second.

Walking, breathing.. These are the small things. It seems so insignificant to me. I want the breeze on my body to give me chills, his gaze to make my heart race, my child to fill me with amazement but all of this is stripped from my being.

I’m listless, unresponsive. My mind and heart have thrown in the towel. So here I sit, as a shell of a person who once existed.
