"Feel Nothing "

There is no silence.

Heads filled with voices.

Each day seems like a 

struggle against every 

belief we once had.

What happened?

What is wrong with 

everything?

When did the balance of 

humanity suddenly 

fall apart?

I just want to close 

my eyes…

and feel nothing.

Months of isolation.

Some are essential,

some stay home.

We are no longer 

normal. We listen 

to different voices.

Who is really safe?

Divided we all fall.

Beliefs are questioned by 

those we once trusted.

Everyone is wrong!!

When will we be tested?

Too much misinformation.

I just want to close 

my mind…

and feel nothing.

Our hearts have been 

broken in shock.

We all watched as 

a man slowly died.

Blue or black really 

don't seem to matter.

Angered voices erupt on 

familiar streets. 

An oppression that has 

festered inside generations.

How did things go so 

quickly out of control?

How did the message get lost?

I just want to close 

my heart…

and feel nothing.

The sun is still shining 

through the deep green leaves. 

The breeze is still 

sweet with lilac blooms.

The chorus of nature is 

still there to be heard,

our souls need to repair.

Open your eyes to brighter 

days. Open your minds

to something new.

Open your hearts to 

peace and trust.

These things are still real.

I just want to open 

my soul…

and feel something.

The End
