Numbness

Numbness.
I just cannot feel
Was there any pain?
Was it real?

When you left.
What became of me?
You took off,
Left me adrift at sea

The current.
It was a strong pull
But now it’s weak
Like it’s come to a stall

Reminds me of the world.
That still surrounds me
It does not move
Like it’s lost it’s key

Like it’s locked up
Frozen in time
Just like my heart
Which used to beat just fine

But now since you left
Everything has changed
The people I once new
They are all strange

I no longer connect
with anyone at all
And I try to breathe
But even that is a struggle

I’m drowning, fading away
On this ocean
That used keep
All of my fears at bay
