Forever Numb

Font Size

I will empty all that I have collected in my heart

I will violently shake it, till I am sure of its complete emptiness

I will seal it in the fire of my will

The seal so true, neither light nor darkness could enter

My heart will forever remain empty

I will look into the eyes of the sun, unblinking

Till every image of you etched upon them, melt away

Only then will I raise my hand to wipe away the tears

And at that moment vow, that never again shall a tear escape

My eyes will forever remain dry

I will journey to coldest corner of the Earth

I will stand still, naked and exposed

Till my body is as numb as my heart

Ensuring I will never again feel another’s warm touch

My touch will forever remain numb

I will clear my mind of thoughts and memories

My mind will become a mirror from this moment on

Willingly accepting all that it observes

But, incapable of holding on to anything that might pass by

Mercifully, my memories will forever be erased
