It is so dark.

I keep running my hands
Along the walls of my mind.
Searching for an escape hatch.

My hands are chaffed.
I don’t want to feel nothing.
Not anymore.

Despite the pain and resignation, Sara,
there is escape (i hope) in the skill of
your trusty pen. -gene.

There are times when we face ourselves and turn against what is revealed. You say it well, so now you may return to better views of why you live a full life and keep close friends. - Bill

I felt like there were tears between your words. I liked the analogy of your chafed hands and not feeling. Excellent. Liz
