I can grasp it with my hand,

Practically feel it's form beneath

My shaky palm,

But is it truly there?

I can feel it, I can see it,

It all seems surreal

As this unfolds in all its horror

While I vomit my mistakes;

Am I in fact alive?

For so long I have felt apathetic,

For so long I have been trodden upon,

But, alas, I have finally reached

A breaking point;

It pains my heart, but I know the answer.

It may pain me, but, alas, so is life:

Am I truly alive?

I drift through this dream with little motion,

My mental health is in a state of decay;

So the question is: am I alive?
