I close my eyes
Sometimes, I just lie staring up at a ceiling caked with dust and I hope that the next moment will not come
Or the moment after that
But it always comes and I continue to lie here. Staring.
I lie here shattered and without hope without possibility and all I have left are memories
I could become singular and separate from the world around me
But the memories are there and I am not alone not alone enough
I wait for the end that will never come
I am broken
My body
My mind
My future
My thoughts
My mind
My future
My thoughts
I don't remember the pain
I do remember the fear
I didn't think they'd ever stop
I never made a sound
I never made a sound
I didn't cry out or ask them to stop even when they crushed my head
I didn't move for a very long time
Very quietly
There was pain
There was only numbness and silence
There had to be
But I don't remember it
