I can't

I can't sleep.

I stay up all hours of the night. Thinking. Thinking. Thinking. 

I can't eat.

I'd rather lie in bed staring at a wall for hours. Hours. Hours. 

I can't think.

My mind is full. Empty. Full. Empty. Full. Empty. 

I can't feel.

I have lost knowledge of how to feel, and yet, I feel too much. 

Suddenly, I can't seem to do anything. 

I can't study.

I can't learn.

I can't try.

I can't. 

Maybe I should just stop trying...

This is my horrible attempt at trying to get over writer's block by 'just writing.' Sadly my 'just writing' is kinda crap...
