I have been aimless for so long.
All I enjoyed, everything I was familiar with now seems foreign.
I don’t feel like a person anymore.
All that I do now is based on what I used to do, There is no longer any authentic or meaningful behavior.
An automated knock off based around a person who died, I know not when.
The rot burns the nose, whatever, whoever I am is stuck somewhere behind the right eye. Unfocused, blurry, poor light makes for a poor view.
What’s expressed has no true origin, merely a product of logic and memory.
All sight is rendered as an afterimage, afterthought, nothing is in real time.
Flashes of what once was, a little boy looking down, entertained by counting steps. Jump forward. Glazed over eyes look through the film and see reflection. Only known as reflection, only because it moved as I did.
The past fears surge, confusion arrives shortly after as I wander in unsure as to where the fear started.
Reactions startle the one inside just as much as the outsiders.
Touch the mirror in hope of reaching reflection.
