And then
There is this one huge void
Terrifying blank space
No sound
No light
No air
No movement
The sense of nothingness
That creeps in
And occupies you
You can’t feel anything
You are not Permitted to cry
You can’t smile
Can’t scream
Can’t breathe..
Niether you are alive
Nor you are dead
Your shadow is gone
Even in the deafening silence
You fail to hear your heartbeat
You can’t feel your pulse
There is this buzz
Static
That’s filled your mind
Something invisible
Is crawling on your arms
The only thing
You can feel
But that doesn’t even exist
You are sucked into a vacuum
Striped of your right to feel..

Beautiful! “You are sucked into a vacuum/Striped of your right to feel.” Yes, this is the kind of society that we created. It’s tragic.

If my words can make any body feel anything at all i feel i have done justice to them.
If they can make people travel to places…there is no bigger complement.
Thank you so much š

I am pretty much having a day like this. I hate the phrase, “misery loves company” because I never want you or anyone to ever feel misery. But..I find I do find comfort and feel a little less alone knowing that I am not the only one who feels this way sometimes. Hope you find some comfort too…wherever you can.

we don’t want anyone to go through the same but we do feel better knowing that it can happen to anyone..

I was in this phase 2 months back. stayed there for a months or so. but it does fizzle out.

That is true for all of us. And there is always hope. Remembering that on the hard days can be tough. It’s good to surround ourselves with people, words, music, art… whatever we can to remind us.
