Dry

I don't want to talk about myself
I don't want to watch TV
I can't focus on anything right now
That, I can really see
I don't want to scream and shout
For some reason I want to cry
For I think that I've screwed myself over
But I don't know how or why
I am scared to fall in love
Because that means right now
Will be left in the past
And even if I manage to fall in love
I know it will never last
But so what, if it ends
At least I did have fun
But then you see I will have lost more
And away I'll be forced to run
Maybe if I fall in love again
I'll forget that I am scared
And I'll be able to move along
And forget what I've prepared
I don't know what to do
Or what I feel right now
I feel that I am empty inside
But I'll get through this somehow
I hate that I'm complaining 
I'm just out of things to say
And I am scared that if I stop
Then the feeling won't go away
They say there's no rest for the wicked
But what about the ones who cannot shut off their heads
We never hear about us folks
As we cry for sleep in our beds
I wish that for just one single day
I fell asleep at 10 o'clock
Then I wouldn't feel quite so useless
When it comes to picking this lock
Grief only gets better with time
I know I'm switching up my thoughts
But I just remembered there is still more to do 
Before I can release my stress from its knots
I wish that I could quit my life
And sail the ocean blue
But I just remembered that I hate the ocean
It's not quite worth the view
I hate the sound that a door can make
When it shuts and scares me down
You can almost imagine the door
With the door closer's frown
I don't know how to end this
So I'll end it with goodbye
I don't know what to name this poem
So I guess I'll call it dry
