One day at a time

I feel, 

I hear, 

I touch, 

I smell, 

but yet none of it feels as though it is real. 

Do you understand how I am feeling? 

I can feel your presence close by, and then it's gone as though it never existed.

I want to hear you say something, just a simple whisper, a guilty pleasure to my ear,

Oh, how i wish those voices didn't fade so quickly. 

I touch around me, feeling a glimpse of happiness, praying it will last, 

if only I could imagine a life FULL of happiness, does it exist? 

Somewhere? 

instead, I lay saddened in my fruffled up bed hoping to never be awoken. 

I smell absolutely nothing today, it's gloomy and dark and not a smell in sight. 

I'll rest my eyes, to only hope too see a beautiful sunflower garden ravishing within a distance. 

When I awake I hope I will feel the same, but if you are struggling as I am,

you must know that this is a day by day story of whether I am happy or sad.
