The air became dense and the wind began to blow
A single question arose in my mind on constant repeat with flow
The clouds turned dark and thick
I feel numb
Birds fly making noises to avoid the upcoming storm
Rain landed on my flushed cheeks making me realize the warmth that they've produced
I can't feel
My tears fell with the rain and my heart began to race as my legs carried me with my mind unaware as to where I was going
My body aches
I ran
and ran
and ran
I reached the cliff and sprinted to the end
I feel numb
I want to feel alive
I jumped and felt the lightness in my body I desired
The wind filled my lungs
I could breathe
I could do anything
Before I hit the water my skin tingles to brace itself
I was engulfed in the piercing cold water that was dark blue
My hairs rose up and my body awakes
I feel the joy rise in my belly as I swam to the surface feeling the current help me up as if it were my only support system
I know the answer now
I am alive
I am not numb
I feel
And my body aches for more
