Existentialism gets snuck back in:
Overwhelming, seemingly unpredictable -
But it all leads to somewhere -
And from somewhere -
Depression,
Overthinking,
Confusion,
Lack of energy,
Culture,
All blend together
Into one existential mess,
Bringing old emotions
Back from their rest;
And maybe they're not as old
As you desperately want them to be -
The fact of the matter is
These emotions
You're trying convince yourself
Are gone
Only happened a few months ago -
Weeks even:
You can't leave an entire life behind
Because you're not in it anymore,
There will still be massive effects
Changing your life:
Effecting your world
Today, and tomorrow:
Based on what happened yesterday.
