The mornings come, but I don't rise,
I stay in bed, beneath the skies,
That watch me through the window pane,
While I sink deeper into pain.
The weight of waking is too much—
Each breath, each step, a lethal touch.
I can't pretend to face the day,
When everything just slips away.
The world moves on, it doesn't care,
That I'm still drowning in despair.
That every second feels like years,
Each heartbeat choked by endless fears.
I long to stay beneath the sheets,
To vanish in my mind's retreats.
But even here, there's no reprieve—
I'm shackled to the pain I grieve.
So I close my eyes, pretend I'm gone,
Though the world outside still moves along.
But in my mind, I cease to be,
A prisoner of misery.
