Numb

Numb

A Story by Arcadeiandesire
"

This is more of a journal entry then a story but I thought it was good

"
Have you ever wanted to cry but you are so numb
That no tears will come out.
So you just curl up in a ball
And stare blanly at a wall.
Feeling your heart break into a million little pieces.
And in that moment...
Nothing anyone says means anything...
Cuz in that moment.
You 
Do
Not
Exist.


And in that moment you feel as if
Everything is closing in on you.
Everything and everyone you ever loved,
 Have become meaningless,
Cuz this darkness...
This immense shadow of dispare,
Just engulfs you like a raging forest fire.
And that's all you can focus on.

The rest of the world is gone. 
This shadow brings with it
A ragging war inside your head.
A war that will never be won.
It is a war between your sanity
And the darkness of insanity.
And some days if feels like
The darkness is winning.

The utter lonelyness.
It is the feeling of being surrounded by people
Yet you still feel completely alone.
It is a lonlylonel that rocks you
To your very core of existence.

And the pain...
The constant feeling
Having a knife in your heart.
It is a pain no band-aid can heal.
It is a pain of long past
Wounds that never healed

The pain that others have caused.
The wounds break open...
Everytime you are reminded
Of the painful incounters.
The mental damage caused by all
Of this pain and darkness
Is enough to drive anyone 
Over the edge
Only the strong can endure
The war ragging.
And make it out better 
Then they were before.
