you know how the TV goes all staticky sometimes?
well thats how i feel ever since you left.

empty.
numb.
alone.

do you need any other words to describe how im feeling?

i remember when i was younger i would be sleeping peacefully inside my dim lit room and suddenly my room would go splotchy and the sound of static would fill the silent air. i would jump up from my bed and try to turn the tv off as fast as i could, because it was so loud it scared me. sometimes if i didn't turn it off, i would just unplug the whole thing.

thats how my mind feels, except worse.

i can't turn my brain off.

i can't unplug it either.

i just have to live with it, while my mind goes so crazy it becomes numb and feels like a TV filled with static.

and the only way to stop it... is for you to come back, and turn it off yourself.
