Illusion



I've lost my feet.
But i don't like to go out anyway

SO THAT'S OK

I've lost my hands
But I don't get to touch the one I love anyway

SO THAT'S OK

I've lost my lungs
But I don't have any good reason to breath since she went away

SO THAT'S OK

I've lost my Chest
But I gave my heart to someone else who didn't want it anyway

SO THAT'S OK

I've lost my head
But I don't have any good thoughts  since you don't want to be anywhere around me

SO THAT'S OK

[BUT NOW I'VE LOST MY INTEREST]
for someone who left me with no feet
so I couldn follow them
no hands so i couldn't touch them
no lungs so i couldn't breath with them
no head so i couldn't think of them

So yes i have no interest
