Why do I yearn
when there’s nothing to yearn for ?
Is it my red blood,
my callous white
senescent skin ?

Why do I feel pushed into longing ?

Emotional ambitions have been
long since abandoned
my agenda these days
is simply to survive.
So why can’t I sleep when I’m tired
or eat when I’m hungry,
is a basic functionabilty
too much to ask ?

Why do I feel caged when in fact I’m free ?

I move slowly yet
there are no loads to tie me down,
each breath I take is mine alone
and my heart beats selfishly for me.
I believe in fate, obviously -
and if this is what she has chosen
then tell me, why do I fight her ?

Why does time stand still ?

my pockets are full of it now
making the days eternally long
even when darkness is
never far away.

Your muse is in a blue mood today, lb, This reads very smoothly voicing those juxtaposed feelings when experiencing a void, but it passes, as do most emotions, the hard part is turning the force around .
 
Some excellent lines here, lb, an interesting read, Zed

Its the emotional package that we carry around with us, and it can weigh us down so much at times.  Good poem lb

Can only echo what the others have said, but very glad I popped in and caught sight of this.
 
Nice work Lb,
