Switch

There’s a light switch
Constantly being turned on
And off
And on
Inside me.

Flick.
Too much noise in my head
Flick.
A void in my soul.
Flick.
What a colorful universe!
Flick.
Full of black holes.
Flick.
I’m laughing like a maniac
Flick.
Talk to me and you’re dead.
Flick.
Let’s go for a run
Flick.
I’ll just lie in my bed.
Flick.
Pretty shop windows!
Flick.
Grey metal gates.
Flick.
I want to go home.
Flick.
I want to escape.
Flick.
I make garlands from words.
Flick.
I tear them off.
Flick.
Butterflies in my stomach
Flick.
I don’t believe in love.
