Some days I feel like I’m in a horror movie
I’m a zombie just about alive but not quite
Somehow able to put one foot in front of the other
Even though I don’t understand how
My body has shut down but somehow I’m still here
I’m alive and breathing and that’s all that matters
I make it through a minute at a time
Wondering whether my body will collapse
My brain is mush and my eyes are glazed
Staring into the distance shuffling towards my target
Towards my bed to fall down in a heap
To close my eyes and repeat for another day
