One Flight Down

You know,
When your heart is so heavy
You forget to look in the mirror in
The morning;

Because you just don't
Care enough,
To face the world,
Or offer anything up to them anymore...

And then,
When you do catch a reflection of yourself;
Your face is just shapes?

And you don't recognize the person you
Are
Or what you've become.

And it's funny,
How
Sadness can devour a person,
And completely cover their head
With
Sheets

That keep them separated
From the world-
For so long,
That they don't even recognize
Their life anymore.

I drive down
These city streets-
And,
I recognize,
Nothing...

Because since the sadness came,
Everything has changed...
