Numb
Numb
I look at the body before me,
The limping figure and the weightless soul;
She resembles snow,
Beautiful but disappears when touched.
I see the brown locks of her now havoc hair,
Hanging over her forehead, covering up a part of her insecurities,
That has managed to slowly desecrate her.
I see the hazel eyes staring back at me,
That once were so lively and full of spirit;
But now looks as if her very life had been sucked out of them.
Her eyelids so gently shutting,
Allowing a single drop of tear to finally escape,
Giving way for more bawling.
I move down to look at her lips,
The ones that twitched up at every little thing now find it hard to even stay horizontal;
Drooping down like leaves that wilt from the lack of sunshine.
Then again, that's what she was; Sunshine.
The summer in winter now turned to autumn as the leaf floated away.
I glance at the mirror one last time and see myself,
But that's not me, it couldn't be.
For all I could see was a girl who forgot to live,
For all I could see was a numb body in front of me.
