Glowing
The light.
Shining brightly on my face
So bright? Why not of my own brightness?
On my back
Digital worlds.
Stifling creativity
Why should I create my own light?
Too tired to get up
My work.
So fruitless on its own in the face of this light
Is it worth putting my batteries back in?
Falling asleep
The weight of this world.
Casting a big shadow from a tiny thing
How can my character compare to the millions I see?
Turned off
My thoughts. My emotions. My feelings. My empathy.
Reflected on full brightness
Have I not done enough to rest?
