That Melancholy Feeling

Jasmin Jay 2004 (Riverside California)

I’m Sad
I’m Sullen
I’m Saturated with this melancholy feeling

I Dread waking up
I Don’t want to dream
But I Doubt staying awake will help me with this melancholy feeling

I Cry at nothing
I’m Confused why
I Can’t Count the unhappy days
But then I’m Calm

Then I’m Nothing
Then I’m Numb
Now I’m without that melancholy feeling

But wait, nevermind, now I’m just without feeling at all
