Brain Dead

Up before the dawn

Had never gone to bed

The sleepless night signifies

A restless churning soul

In the stark white hospital beds

Amid the stuff sterile air

Lurks a virus in my mind

That lives to break and tear

The steady beat of the heart monitor

Cannot show the life inside

I've been brain dead for a while

But only now I recognize

The vacant inside

Where my heart should be

Is it the heart or the head

That matters the most to me

Either way they're both gone

So all that is left to see

Is a beating heart monitor

And dead memories

First time updating from iPod so hopefully the font is okay. Working on the plot of My Soul and editing the first chapters, expect a new one towards the end of June or beginning of July :)
