I'm sleepwalking
through life.
I've fallen into a cycle
of unconscious existence.
Sometimes I try so hard
and end up failing.
I beat myself up when
I don't meet my expectations.
So I've just given up;
now I lead a comatose life.
My heart is in a dormant state
to avoid the pain.
My motions, involuntary,
my feelings, numbed.
It's better to live this way
than risk the hurt.
