my hands have turned cold; my emotions have become numb. i cannot feel the pain any longer so i guess i am done.

and yet again, i ate another paragraph for there came a guy, two kilometers away, whom i thought was as silent as the midnight breeze. turns out he brews all his hurricanes inside his mind. he gave me weird shivers as i felt warm in my chest. he isn't so near yet isn't so far. he's at a safe distance and even if i wanted to chase him, i know i couldn't. he would definitely run away, and would never look back.

i can't blame him, though; that i started feeling warm again. that i was finally free from the numbness.

that i could feel the pain again.

because it happens every night, whenever i think about unrealistic possibilities, hurting myself in the process.

he did nothing wrong
and it's all my mistake.
