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.

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.
