Leather Day

Im not feeling much of anything anymore

I try to just get by, but breathings such a chore

I ran out of guilt to play, to make me hate my day

The juice for tearfulness, is something I should miss

Energy is a mile to shore, when I dont know what for

I know somethings absent, but a paper cups not a feeling, nor fulfillment

I should be filled with anger, but my feelings are a stranger

I should be consumed by the bitter, but I could not taste, an apple fritter 

Surely I would feel the surrounding love, but I know not what they know of

I could slice my tongue and let the worms settle in, though even so Id know no pain or feel unsettling


It doesnt matter what I do so I'll do it

It doesnt matter what I dont so I wont

I dont so much feel confused as much as I feel the fog

Maybe Ill get run over, going for a walk

I dont know if Id care or how Id feel

Or how much of my face would peel


Pointless endeavor

Or regret when Im better

I guess I do feel tethered  

To this one point

Or maybe an ache in a phantom joint
