Image for the poem I

I'm not dead just far from being alive

I'm not dead
Just far from being alive.......
I'm not dead just
Don't know why I'm alive
Nor why I should even remain alive.....
I'm not dead,
 just can't tell the difference anymore.
I'm emotionless, empty,
With no dream nor hope
I have no desire and no reason for laughter,
I can't even lift my hand to try and make an attempt
I just wanna lay in the cold hard ground,and watch as
Everything slowly fades away....
Where there was once love,
Only an empty void occupies that space.
Joy has turned to sadness,
Dreams and hope all shattered.
Reasons and desires all broken.
Should I end it?
Should I try to make everything better?
Would it even matter at all?
How come is the sky and the ground are so far apart?
I could jump and reach the sky and ask God for the reason why I'm alive?
Does it get better, does it all go away?
My own words are my sinking stones.
My hands will one day guide me home.
I'm not dead,
Just far from being alive.
