✯ she felt numb
her mind was blank
dark eyes stony
void of all emotions
as barren as a desert
not a thing inside
they said she had emotions
they said she could feel
but oh boy were they wrong
she sat on the cold asphalt
she didn't mind the frost
she sat like a statue
her stance unwavered
she merged into the night
past the bliss in her mind
there was darkness
despite her pessimism
maybe she could feel again
✯ she could only hope
