A two-week break, I’ll see you all in April But two weeks turned into two months Two months has now been two years
I woke up each day in the afternoon Listened to music, looked at my computer,crying I was drained mentally, on the verge of dying
On autopilot Living, sleeping, breathing It wasn't me, I was a prisoner of my own mind Fighting for my life, I wanted it to be the end
I prayed to not wake up the next morning I prayed for it to all be a dream I prayed I would be at peace I prayed and prayed and prayed
It's been two years with no end in sight Case after case At least I'm in-person again School, theater, events
I'm still dying though Just with a mask on A cloth one and a mental one
