overthinking

what is this
inexplicable feeling
no name to all this hurt
feels like a death i've been grieving
but no tears come out
i cannot cry
numbness spread all over my being
and i'm left here to die
overthinking everything
but feeling absolutely nothing at all
terrifying nameless emotions
as i brace myself for the impact of the fall
how do i explain this
feeling whatever everything that's pain
maybe it's all the hurt in my body
that's coursing through my veins
