Elapse

Now that the numbness is ebbing away,

A confused being started recognizing the surroundings,

Yet, the winding path’s still twisted,

So much so that the next step remains unseen

The destination unknown

A heart that’s always welled-up

A lost soul

Fledgling to find its way around

The tears adamant to break all barriers,

Melancholy ready to hit any time

Is this what grief does to you?

Crushing the numbness

And jolting you to a world of pain?
