an old one

it used to feel wonderstruck
every day
i would awake
looking forward to a new day
i dread it now
now i wish sometimes i could sleep through entire days
just to skip them
i used to skip down the open roads
joyfully greeting others
now i see no point
in even leaving the house
as time ticked on
it didn't feel the same
nothing feels the same
i even wonder
all for what?
i even wonder
what is the point anymore?
every day feels the same
why even try?
nothing feels the same
i often wonder
if i am still the same me
but yes
only
the world is draining

ef.
