Hollow
Numb: not being able to feel anything.
That's all I can be described as.
Numb.
Not sad, mad, depressed, happy or anything else.
I have lost my ability to feel.
I have spent so long being over run by too many emotions, I welcome the numb.
I welcome feeling at peace in my mind, my thoughts are quiet now.
Except at night.
At night, I am not numb.
Hollow: without significance.
I am hollow.
There is nothing in me, I have cried it all out into my pillow over the years.
My mind is like a movie when the film runs out, a flickering black screen.
I have nothing left, I have given it all to selfish people over the years.
I am hollowed out.
And no one even knows,
No one notices my hollow smile.
