I feel like I'm drowning
I feel nothing at all
Numb

Numb
I feel numb
and it doesn't shock me
as much as the first time
or even the second time
I lie in bed
and stare unblinkingly
at the stained ceiling
of our box room.
The stairs groan
as Father carries Aoi
downstairs
to head to the hospital
She's screeching
in pain
or maybe annoyance
I don't know
I don't care
But Suki, Zeira and Miria
stir
waking up
to reality
to life
to my pain.
