Joel Faviere - Stay That Way
I woke up, but I, I wish I hadn’t.
This is all in my head, right?
Honestly, my arms and my legs are completely separated from my will to my want, to my want to move forward.
Move forward?
Right, move forward, right?
The room, the room matches my mind, and I used to break this, all of it.
The light is now, the light is now on.
The room completely lit up, but for some reason, I still, I still can’t see absolutely anything, not even through my lids.
I, I just don’t even want to be, I don’t want to be be here.
Wait, what?
Why?
Within a matter of seven hours of sleep, I’m numb, not loved, wait.
Not loved?
I’m loved, right, right?
It just, it just arrived, it’s, it’s stupid.
I’m stupid.
Am I?
Yesterday, I was high on happiness, yesterday, I wanted to see today.
Today, I want nothing, no passions.
What is passion?
Am I insane?
I have to be insane.
Within five minutes of this nest twenty-four hour day, I’ve already asked myself more questions than I’ve asked myself in the past year of my whole entire life.
I feel ageless; I feel lost.
Actually, not even lost, because of I was lost, that would mean I existed, which I don’t.
Wait, do I?
Yesterday, I did, or did I?

I was depressed.
You feel like you can’t do anything about it.
It’s a war, no mind.
You’re surrounded by every single thought you thought you’d never have.
Tell someone, something.
It doesn’t even matter if it’s just a small sign.
A bunch of small signs add up.
If you’re reading this right now, that means you’re alive.
Stay that way.
