What good is it not to be numbed completely?
I can only feel despair, solitude, disdain,
A permanent curling of my lips
In utter hate of light and cheer.
My fingers are vines that twist around the letters
The keys feel heavy under them,
They feel foreboding of an inescapable event.
I have no tears because I drank them all
I have no yearning because I devoured my soul
I have left my heart in an impassive void
Free of everything I once thought I enjoyed.
My fingers are vines...
