Numb

you know, i just realized that this was a breaking point for me, in my past.

oh?

yes, i remember this feeling, it marked the beginnings of dissolutions.

i see. and how do you feel now?

numb.

that makes sense.

it does?

sure. those tears came from suffering in the present, reminders of the past, and fears about the future. i think you are recuperating.

yes! i AM recuperating.

and, you don't want to feel any more pain during recovery. it makes sense to me that you are numb. i am right here with you.

thank you.
