This body is broken.

Unfeeling, it does not respond.

It lays there,

Unmoved.

Coldness emits from its hazel orbs,

All drive, gone.


Its flesh is tired.

Its flesh is dead.


The loving touch, cannot be felt.

The warmth, cannot be shared.

The excitement is not there...


Passionless.

Expressionless.

Lifeless.

Spineless.


It does not speak.


Moans and cries tremble past its lips,

Barely audible through gridded teeth.


Ripping from within,

The tears become deeper.

The fears, reality.


It waits for pain to subside,

And the paralysis to take over once more.


It engulfs the being like a wave.

Trickling down the tops of its toes,

Down its feet, and slithering further up its body,

Downing it in numbness yet again.


Submerged, it lays beneath the cool sea of insensitivity,

longing to reach the surface and feel...
Imagine if you could not feel...
