I feel numb. All my mistakes little by little have made me prone to pain. I don't feel anything. I don't feel the joy that comes with eating an ice cream sundae or the sorrow that comes when you lose someone close to you. It's all gone. Life has worn me out, robbing me of my energy, love, and ability to feel. I am empty, alone, and invisible, so much so that I don't even feel. Everyone around me moves on with life, while I'm frozen in the cold winter of my soul. If I could take it all back, I would. I would take back all the hatred, pain, ignorance, and pessimism. I always hoped I'd turn out okay. I thought I had, but I sit here, regretting everything. Why did I have to grow up? Why couldn't have I turned out the way my mama wanted me to? I didn't want to be this way, I...I shouldn't be this way. I could have prevented it all, if I had just listened. I trusted myself and others too much. Next time darling, just keep your mouth shut.
