We all have days where we feel numb to everything that happens around us no matter how happy or sad the person who is informing us... We become non reactive and eerily quiet that we question why am I not feeling anything! So this poem tries to convey the emptiness a person a feels when everything seems to go downhill... At that point just before the storm begins... The silence that is defeaning... Hope you are able to relate...
Now to the poem โฆspecially dedicated to all who are able to relate to this..
The sun is shining bright blinding my eyes
Just like the troubles shining that are bigger in size
Arrogantly and without any mercy it knocks me down!
But now am not ready even to simply frown!
It has lost its power on me for now
Am still and too calm that I think how!
Is my brain really functional at this point?
Is there anything else left waiting to dissapoint!
Am I happy and do I feel like I conquered?
I guess it's a no as nothing has even wavered!
Not even my resolve to be better than today
Everything is still same as it was the previous day!
So am I sad that nothing is ever working out?
Again I feel it's a no without any doubt!
Cause my disaster isn't really piling up!
Just that it has been the same old dustbin dump
My heart is no longer heavy or bleeding
My lips are dry and no more pleading
No I haven't accepted my fate yet!
You don't have to think or place a bet
It's just that nothing bothers me anymore
Even the broken vases and glasses on the floor
Seem to present in another dimension
As if everything is happening in some 3D animation
Nothing is touching me but still moving around
I know what is happening but hear no sound
My mind and aoul has at last become numb!
I wouldn't react even if you cut off my thumb!
Staring into the blank that's far yet near
Sitting quietly allowing no space for a tear
Emptiness has sucked emotions like a black hole!
Now am just alive as a person whole
But never living in the present past or future!
My emptiness too for others is a torture!
Do let me know if you felt this way or could relate.. So if at all you have had this situation praying you are out of this zone and communicate with all
Stay happy and safe!
