Numb
(Sorry for the long
paragraph. it is imperative, since the whole thing is a train of thought, with
no brakes.)
COMFORTABLY NUMB
The pain was unimaginably horrifying. I could think of nothing,
and my brain literally stopped to work. The pain was like a virus, spreading to
all the parts of my body. My whole body itched, which left my fist nails
cutting into the skin. I couldn't feel the pain of the skin, though. The former
pain dominated it. The pain started taking over my senses. My eyes were being
filled by a white light, and I couldn't sense anything but pain. I could feel
every living part of mine carving for the end of it. I was now in the very
definition of trauma. My body could have withered, I did not know, Nor did I
care. The pain was already intolerable, and I could even feel the rise in it's
magnitude. I must have withered now. After what seemed endless, My brain could
recognize one feeling, that the pain was at it's maximum. The pain gave birth,
within me, A feeling of numbness, somewhere deep down in the flesh of my body.
I felt like it was growing, slowly. It was like a virus too, spreading. But
miraculously, it started to oppose its cause. The numbness made my body feel
the pain lesser. I am feeling numb now, Comfortably numb. The light in my eyes
was getting dimmer, and I even thought I could hear something. Probably
numbness cannot live without pain. As the pain was all dead, even it's killer,
the numbness started dying. I was getting back to the surroundings. That which
I saw then was a ceiling which I recognized. But there was some enigmatic
difference, and I felt as if there wasn't any pull, a burden, on me anymore. It
felt as if I could exist without doing something which I always did before. And
It seemed that a heavy responsibility; always bestowed upon me before, was
suddenly removed. Turning back, I saw
my dead body, smiled, and drifted away.
