I exist in a constant state of numbness
I do not feel the world around me
I do not feel happiness
I do not feel the sun on my face
I do not feel the warmth from a hug
I do not feel anything
I do not feel
But sometimes my world explodes
And I feel
I feel the sadness
I feel the pain
I feel the loneliness
I feel something
I prefer the darkness over the numbness, that way I know I'm alive
