Paying Up
March 20, 2009
Slowly everything blurs together.
And I don’t feel pain anymore
In fact I don’t feel anything
And I shock myself more
By feeling almost relieved at that fact
That sudden shock becomes
An epiphany, like lighting striking me
I am no longer hurting
The pain of my loses
Are gone
The heavy burdens I carried
Are now weightless
And my heart
Gone
Out of my hand
Can be protected
Unable to get hurt again
But was it worth it?
The price too high?
The price of me giving up of living
And just surviving?
