talking is nothing
sometimes
i don't feel like talking
to anyone
it just feels as if
someone knocked the wind
out of my chest
losing my breath
i can't speak
or begin to part my lips
to utter a syllable
when thousands of
thoughts whirl through my mind
and this feeling
keeps me thinking
have i fallen
too deep
into the abyss of loneliness?
have i grown tired
of explaining myself?
have i finally
realised
talking is nothing
when all you feel is
nothing?
—i'm sorry i'm too tired to talk to anyone. no, i don't hate you.
