I'm not here anymore

A curious feeling, an absolute lethargy has crept over me...

Don’t knock on the door, don’t ring the bell
Don’t wait for my voice, that you know so well.
For I’m taking a trip to an unknown place
It’s the first time I’ve been, here in inner space.

Just cannot explain this feeling I feel
I wish I knew what was the real deal.
I’m doing the things I’ve always done
I know all will be fine in the long run.

It’s not that I’m sad, or even depressed
It’s not that I’m acting like one possessed.
It’s not that I’m mad, or even confused
And no, this is not keeping me amused.

Floating like a cloud riding on the wind
I’m feeling completely spaced out within.
Just watching Life go meandering by
I wanna lie down and just look at the sky.

I don’t want to speak, I don’t want to write
I don’t want to smile, I don’t want to fight
I don’t want to eat , I don’t want to breathe
I just wanna let go, I just wanna be

No strings attached, no duty calls
Breaking down all my weary walls
Just flying out to the deep blue sea
Spirit's footloose, and fancy free.

So if you ring the bell, or knock on the door
Don’t wonder, coz I’m not here anymore.
I hope I’ll touch down on terra firma real soon
Till then, think of me when you look at the moon.

Floating like a cloud riding on the wind
I’m feeling completely spaced out within.
Just watching Life go meandering by
I wanna lie down and just look at the sky.

Wow!! How wonderful to be able to write such an articulate poem to describe what you feel. Even if that aint what you are feeling it is superb. The fact that it is, makes it only superb-er.

With my lack of novel comments, I guess I have to agree with Ananth and Asuph, Donno what else to say. Except that come back to your self real soon. And in the meanwhile I will think about the Paper King, the Shampoo, Salt and Pepper and you whenever I look at the moon, which btw I just LOVE!! :)

Considering that I'm in a situation that is a dead-ringer to yours, its pretty freakin' ironic that I should be commenting on this blog, and yet here I am...damn you for being so articulate! :))
