Braindead

Somehow when I've lost all energy, I still have the will to step forward once more. I can still garner the little strength needed to breathe. And time continues it march. Relentless. Pounding. Rhythmic. Until I can lie to sleep...

And still it pounds its steady beat blood coursing through my temples, doing everything that isn't holy, feeding a mind that should just stop and repent. I hurt, I want to sleep in these daylight hours. But I can't, I think of all the things that must be done and all the the hours that must be lived. Drifting away from shore, I grow worried and my eyes dart from side to side. How will I stay afloat?
