This is a poem that I wrote one random evening when even talking felt like such a huge task. I realised that the times are bad, everyone is suffering one way or another and maybe if I share it someone can read it and relate to it and rejoice in the fact that they aren't the only ones, that they aren't alone in all of this. There's someone there, even if that person is a thousand miles away, even if they can only contact them through the phone screen and through pseudonyms.
NUMB
Numbness is what I feel
It has taken root all over me
It's grip is like steel
Unforgiving and unwavering
What can I do but kneel
I crave to be human again
To feel the emotions
Even if they are nothing but anger and pain
It feels like I'm drowning
And the water keeps rising from all the rain
My heart keeps on beating
But am I really alive
The world keeps on revolving
But where am I
Everyone keeps on moving
But I stand still like the hills
- Dyuti
