Do you ever feel like you can't move
from veins
to bones
all the way to the outer layer of your skin,
you just cannot move.
Every limb in your body
just stops functioning.
you stop thinking,
you sit there
and everything surrounding you is pressure
getting tighter and tighter
forcing you to not move.
If someone or something is calling out for you,
you don't have the ability to move and reply.
I feel this a lot,
when I am being physically abused
but especially verbally abused by many people.
The hits are just repetition,
over and over again,
each one hurting less than the other.
Once this pain finally stops,
you feel empty
because you know that everything is moving,
but your heart is the one thing that is truly...
