Alive, Yet Dead

I am alive,

Yet I am dead.

I breathe air,

Yet I don't breathe.

I feel pain,

Yet I don't feel.

I am free,

Yet I feel captured.

I see others around me,

Yet I feel alone.

I feel strong arms holding me,

Yet there's no one there.

I hear someone calling out to me,

Yet it's just an illusion.

I am sane,

Yet I know I am mad.

I let go of life,

Yet something keeps me living.

I am alive,

But I want to die.
