Drip, Drip, Drip

The sound of rain wakes me up

But I close my eyes and

Let my heavy eyelids droop.

Hands on my chest,

And feet tangled with yours,

I let out a sigh,

And stare at the ceiling,

I can't feel anything,

I don't feel anything,

And I don't want to.

I feel void,

I feel lifeless,

And I feel no love.

I'm lying naked next to you,

There's no intimacy,

"It's all an illusion, It's all in your head,"

They said.

I can't love,

Because I'm an empty vessel

I can't love,

Because I don't even love myself

I can't love

Because I don't trust anyone anymore

I am only meant to

Lie naked next to you.

I Feel sorry for you,

I am sorry for the love you have for me,

I am sorry for taking up your time,

I feel sorry,

And I'm sorry.

I'll just lie naked next to you for now,

And leave when you wake up.
