Dead

Sometimes you just feel dead. I feel dead, or at least as dead as a person who's never been dead can feel. I don't know what dead feels like, but this is as good as it gets. Dead to me is emotionless. I am emotionless. I can look at the people around me, and not care one bit. The sad part is that's the only thing that saddens me.

I can sit here, at the computer, aimlessly typing, even though I know that at least one of the six people I'm close to is crying. I could probably name the one or ones that are crying too.

Then they are sad until they can fix it to the best of their ablity. I'm a happy person. I was a happy person. I'm a dead person.

I guess I'm a contradictory dead person that can read, write, and type. It's ironic, like the song. No, that has nothing to do with this...I know, but hey, I'm dead. I have that right, right? Do the dead have rights? If so, I'd like a list. I want someone to list me out my rights, so
