Enough
i will die
therefore
i am alive
if
there is life after death
then
i am not dead in the next life
does this
go on
indefinitely

after
death
i am alive
therefore
i will die
is there one
final death
after which
there is
no more life
and
if that is the case
is this my last life
or my first
for now
i am alive
therefore
i am not dead
and that is enough

Insomnia, makes me feel like I’m a dead, sometimes.
Being alive, and feeling dead on the inside is a rather complex conundrum of life.
Albeit, one that many have experienced !
I like the breakdown of this... and good luck in the comp ! 😎

I have never suffered from insomnia. Feeling dead inside is how I experience grief. Does that ever go away competely? (rhetorical question)
Thank you.
Thank you.
