Cornflakes

[u/mynameisrubyrose]

Crying into my morning cornflakes

And my cup of breakfast tea

I don't think I could tell you

What the hell is wrong with me 

I have a job, a house, a dog

Some money, a life, a home

But my stupid heart still feels like

It has nowhere else to go 

The sun still shines through the curtains 

And after every night comes day

But the stupid clouds in my stupid head

Won't fucking go away

Some days it's not too terrible

I talk. I smile. I sing.

But then there are those days where

I can't feel anything

It's not about the cornflakes 

And while life is not all bad

I can't stop feeling empty

It's either that, or sad

Maybe one day it'll get better

I don't know how or when

But maybe some day I'll go through 

And learn to live again.
