Lethargy

I’m turned upside down
I’m stressed to the consent
That I’m giving all I have taken
I open my eyes but they struggle to see
I’m suffering from a case of lethargy

I’m hearing things from inanimate objects
I’m silently screaming until my sound turns into a minor ring
That is generously beatifying my ears of deafness
I fall through screaming even though I don’t know the pitch it may be
I’m suffering from a case of lethargy

I’m horrified by the faint sound in the quiet night
I’m in pain and throe; like someone is pulling my teeth
And my jaw is swollen and I can feel it with the numbness
Although my fingertips are tingling from numbness
I’m suffering from a case of lethargy

I’m tasting this incompletion as if it was gilded just for me
It’s burning my tongue as if it was too powerful of a tang
And I’m on the verge of choking up what I thought I left behind
Although it’s subsequent and it’s something I’m used to
I’m suffering from a case of lethargy

I’m ruined by the smell of this
It’s sour and it’s tiring
I’m gagging with every breathe I take; it seems as though breathing is the hardest thing to do
When I’m suffocated with this empowerment that consummates my brain
I’m suffering from a case of lethargy

Its all the colors that are neutral
It’s all the colors in my most vivid dreams
It’s shown in my face; a look of apathy to match my broken smile
Help me, I’ve been drowned by lethargy
