boredom consumes
so does depression
don't get the two mixed up
boredom can lead to being depressed
but depression is consuming in its own right
it's like quicksand
except you can feel it over your whole body at once
you're not sinking
you're being engulfed
all at once
like a vacuum over your body pulling you every which way
your head pounds
eyes are heavy
sleep is welcomed, but never comes
every hair, every muscle, every cell of your body
carries tremendous weight
a miracle really
how much weight you can lift
how you can still walk and talk
smile even
but its there
its always there
