Numb I'm listless dragging myself, lost within, lost without no answers dead weight holding me back, beyond despondent. Can you see me? No, I'm not here, I'm not there, I'm not anywhere. Conscious body walking, talking, feeling, yet numb to priorities, numb to reality, numb desiring motivation only receiving exhaustion. |

Conscious body walking, talking, feeling, yet numb to priorities, numb to reality, numb desiring motivation only receiving exhaustion. I know this feeling, you have described it perfectly. It always passes, I hope the same is true for you. hang in there soon you will tasting the warmth and beauty of life. Great poem, tahnks for sharing. ------------------------ "Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too? " Douglas Adams. Small Black Flowers That Grow In The Sky "You have your very own number They dress your cage in its nature Once you roared now you just grunt lame Pace around pathetic pound games Wanna get out won't miss you sensaround To carry your own dead to swing your tyre tricks Wanna get out here you're bred dead quick For the outside, The small black flowers that grow in the sky They drag sticks along your walls Harvest your ovaries dead mothers crawl Here comes warden, Christ, temple, elder Environment not yours you see through it all Wanna get out won't miss you sensaround To carry your own dead to swing your tyre tricks Wanna get out here you're bred dead quick For the outside, The small black flowers that grow in the sky Here chewing your tail is joy" Richey Edwards |

How eloquently you have described this altered state...and the format of this piece really highlights the mood...wonderful writing, Lost Dreamer. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
