“You ok?”

I’m not empty, but I’m not whole.

Not disappointed, but not satisfied.

Not sad, but not happy.

Not tired, but not perky.

Calm on the outside, screaming inside.

I’m anxious, but I don’t want to deal with a panic attack.

I feel like crying, but I just washed my face.

I feel numb, but I feel this feeling, so I guess I can’t be numb.

Guess my answer is a more complicated than the question.

And this isn’t just now, this is constant.

Just a quick “I’m fine”, and I’m honest

Because I’m used to this feeling, it’s always there,

It’s just bothering me a little extra right now.

But I’ll surpress it until the next time it tries taking over me,

It’s my “meant to be”, so I’m a pro,

I just feel so lonely when it has to go.
