The 11th day of the 11th Month

It happened then. It's happening now.

It has been happening. Love. Hate.  

Humpday.  I could barely get out of bed. 

I wasn’t hungry. I wasn't interested.

I feel really sick. Of this life. Of this world.

Sick inside, sick outside. Just sick. And tired.

Perhaps I needed a day. To get back on track. 

I wanted to exist. I wanted to breathe. 

My friends are celebrating their birthdays.

I am happy but can't do anything just now.

Everything seemed more distant. 

Can I make it out of here, of this, alive?

I am working. I can. I will. I did. For hours.

I am getting comfortable with being a zombie.

I am working but I am laying flat in my mind.

My body, my thoughts, my future...rotting in the shadows.

What else do I need to do? Many. I’d rather starve.

It happened then. It's happening now.

It has been happening. Love. Hate.  

I have gotten out of bed. But, you know, I'm dead.
