i'm very sad
(yet i also feel absolutely nothing)
i'm very lonely
(yet i'm surrounded by people)
i'm so angry
(but what's there to be mad about?)
i'm very happy
and i think i'm going to smile through
these dry-eyed tears
because i've realized that
i have you,
and god that is enough sometimes
but it's also ever enough
but i still wonder
why am i such a paradox?
