Return to Remembering
I have to get back, but I don't know the way home. I haven't for a long time. I've been going through the motions, everything just goes right through me. And all the sudden I can't separate a week from another, a day from the last, an hour from any of the other hours, or even a second from the next. Ask me what I had for lunch and I'll tell you I can't remember. Ask me how I felt about a certain class I was in at some point today and I'll tell you the same thing. I'm numb, I'm a zombie, I'm dead inside, I feel nothing, but I'm alive. I'm getting a's in all my classes, keeping up with everything, but I'm just going through the motions and I can't remember a thing. I need to get back, back to feeling something, any emotion-pain, suffering, happiness- I don't feel care as long as I feel it. I need to get back to living. I'm tired of walking around being a zombie, numb to this world. I'm a ticking time bomb and one day I fear I'll just explode.
