"On a scale of 1-10,
How do you feel today?"
She's not sure
She doesn't feel anything.

"And how was your day?"
"It was ok" she said.

Have you ever thought about...
Have you ever...
Yes...
Why do you think the scars are there?

A silent, sweet voice crying
"Help us, save us"
But she doesn't feel like she should be saved...
She doesn't feel anything
Except an unbearable pain that comes
When the numbness wears off

She puts scissors to paper
So she can feel something
Anything...

Help, I'm lost...
In a sea of nothingness
And drowning in an ocean of fears.
