Spoiler!
there is something i need to do but i cant do it
there is something i want to do but i cant do it
there is something i can do but i cant do it

i have too many games to play
i have too many songs to hear
i have too many books to read


every game is boring
every song is boring
every book is boring

nothing can be played
nothing can be heard
nothing can be read

and so i sit here staring at my pc
and so i sit here doing nothing
and so i sit here feeling empty

and so i sit here

Oh if u put two spoilers in the same post you can't actually open the second one, jsyk.

I like these poems! The repetitive structure of them evokes the same feeling that they're about, I think. When nothing feels worth doing and you know you should be doing something but you can't because something feels terribly wrong with you, so you go days and days and days doing the same thing and they all blend together. I don't know if that's the intent but that's how I feel sometimes and I think these two poems capture that feeling pretty well! Thank you for posting them :}
