Sitting in the corner of her room, rocking herself to a state somewhere between sleep and awake, dead and alive, she's almost there;
the thoughts don't make any sense;
the breathing has calmed down;
the eyes have been fixated on her knees for so long she doesn't even know what she's looking at anymore;

the feeling still remains.

The feeling of wow-i-remember-what-it-used-to-be-like-looking-at-all-of-them-wondering-howcouldthey-howcouldthey-howcouldthey mixed with the feeling of now-she-is-looking-at-all-that-is-left-of-me-wondering-howcanshe-howcanshe-howcanshe;
the mixed up feeling once again getting mixed up with another feeling;
it-is-wrong-wrong-wrong-it-is-wrong;
and another;
it-is-okay-it-is-fine-it-will-be-fine-you-can-do-it-do-not-bail-on-us-now-we-have-come-so-far-just-a-little-more-more-more-a-little-more-please.

She tries to zone out the feelings, thinking that rocking will help;
looking at her knees will help;
thinking of nothing except babbles will help;
they must help;
they will help;

she needs to try harder.

Rocking;
and rocking;
it all becomes blurry;
emotionless;
numb;


free.

Put it under prose, but would poetry be better? I do not know what this is. Need help deciding. Is it anything at all, because I think it should be prose, but the genres are all wrong and I cannot choose rightly. Help.

And should the name remain 'numb' or would 'free' be better?

Wow. Oh numb suits perfectly... shes trying to recede into her own world, numb of the rest (that's what I think anyway though i suppose you'd be the one to know).

Very Strong :)

Thank you :heart:

And I didn't actually even think of free before I got to the end and it fit there and then I started questioning the title... But anyway, if 'Numb' suits it, then I'm leaving it at that, hehe.
