A Shell that I have become. For my mother

My body aches. My mind is blank.
I have no feeling. No laughter.

I can't rest if asleep and grow weary while awake
I can not be satisfied. 
I thirst and thirst, Quench and Quench
but my evil body hates my spirit.

I dream awake, where my night-mares take place 
and scream when I feel disaster.

My stomach implodes and my heart remolds
every time a thought wonders past her.
My aching brain can not take this pain.
I wish I could escape to green pastures.

My friends don't even recognize me.
My eyes are weary and alone,
My mouth quiet and monotone.

A helpless
 dead
 shell.
