When my eyes are open
But my mind is empty
And my heart is closed
I feel nothing
Like the life is drained
And my emotions are dry
But then I feel something
Like the numbness of my cheeks
After standing in the cold too long
Then going in a warmer room
Or the chill feeling
That comes when my necklace
Hits the flesh on my chest
And those little things
Bring me back
And fill me with life
