Afterbirth

Categories: Uncategorized

Vast.
Emptiness
Devoid of emotion
a whirlwind of nothingness
yet so painful
How could I have forgotten
What I can’t remember
why I feel so bad
I wasn’t even really there, was I?
Where did my feelings go?
Did they carefully scrape
that away
Have they suctioned
out my sensitivity?
What powerful anesthetic
to my emotions
they injected in my veins
So numbing and unfeeling
so close to giving life
but too busy
tongue kissing Death.
Someone had to pay the
price.
I’m sorry it was
you.
