I don't exist today.
Today, I am just a ghost
Floating
Falling
My lips move but no sound comes out
Time doesn't exist for me here
Or for any of us, really
Time after all, is an illusion
Minutes feel like hours
And hours feel like minutes
And months and years and seconds
I thought I heard a voice
A greeting, a conversation,
a piece of text whispered into the wind
A name
I turned, I looked
But I was alone.
You are always alone here.
I don't exist today.
Everything is gray gray gray
Gray would know how to find me
They always did
I am floating
Or maybe I'm falling
Or maybe I have not moved
In dayshoursweeksminutesyears
They all feel the same here
How long have I been here
Where is here
Who am I
Who are you
I am a ghost.
Drifting
I'm not really here
Or there.
I'm not really anywhere
I'm stuck in the silent labyrinth of my mind
You couldn't find me if you tried
You couldn't find me if I called to you
I couldn't make a sound to call you if I tried
Today I don't exist
Tomorrow's chances are bleak.
Call me on Thursday
I don't exist today.
