it's come across again
when you can't
be here
and i'm heavy
from doing nothing
and feeling everything
emotions weighing
down my limbs
as if they're filled
with water
just a constant lack
of productivity and motivation
even for the things i love
and your absence
though perhaps you cannot
help it
just adds rocks
which sink down
and make it all the worse
and the hardest thing about it
is i see you see me
yet whether you can talk
or not
i know i could save myself
the pain
of waiting
but instead
i'll choose to torture
myself again and again
out of love
and misery
and if it's love for you
or the water
in my bones
i will not know
