Silence has pressed in.
I think I feel numb. How can I be certain, though? I've learned better
Than to trust my feelings. I guess it doesn't matter, anyway. It never
Did.
Memories of gray blur my vision, and everything comes crashing down
Faster than ever. I call to my knight in shining armor, but he doesn't come.
I'm left on the floor alone again, just as the silence said it was meant
To be. I fall into a lifeless reality as the world's meaningless words
Screech loudly throughout the room. The cold floor suddenly turns warm,
And then hot. It seems the lies are coming from below.
His whispered I love yous are not forgotten, but rather disregarded. They're
Thrown into my face with everything else and I know it was never true. Apathy's
Arrived, and I can say I've truly stopped caring.
I'm at the cliff again and the silence tells me I'm ready to see what lays
beyond. Indifferently, I take the step that's said will be my last. I fall,
taking nothing with me. Not a heart. Not a soul. Not even a conscious.
