numb

that's what I feel

when you say those words

it meant nothing to you

but it was everything to me

the world slows down

everything

slows down

I can't breathe

I spent all night thinking about it

just to find that it meant nothing

all that time

wasted

I can't think

I can't move

I am frozen

I don't realize that I'm crying

until your fingers brush them away

the world speeds up again

I snap back into reality

then you're hunched over

in pain

my fist clenched and bleeding

but I can't feel a thing

I'm numb

and maybe now

feeling a little better

I walk away

leaving him

sprawled on the floor

groaning in agony

good
