Read Poem: No Future, by The Butler Lady

Emotionally I’m depleted

Mentality I’m exhausted

Spirituality I feel drained

But physically I’m present

Numb – but still moving

My brain is racing 100 miles per hour

With constent whiplash of thoughts

The pit in my stomach intensifies

While my heart feels like it’s being water boarded

On the surface, everything seems fine

But inside it’s different
