As emotionless and expressionless state of being the word is associated with, it is a feeling altogether - quite rightly of its own.
There are highs and there are lows and somewhere in between the two is the transition - a state where this four letter word stands tall, with its feet apart, hands at the waist, and stares down at you with it's lifeless eyes. It needn't push or scare away any emotion wanting to peek out to the surface, it's presence makes them all to simply not be there!
I contemplate - Is it the vestige of the night before - witnessing the deliriousness that life puts your very loved ones through? Or are you identifying with it as something of your own!
Numb - your mind, Numb - your soul.
Numbness devouring the shimmer of your eyes
Numbness - like the eternal dark hole!
No wait!!! Numb - I don't want to be no more!
A flash and a blink later I say - B'bye Pink Floyd! Led Zep - Here I come!
