numb

i feel numbthis car, careens off the pavementi don't feel a thingits not you its not mei am nothing to feel free this numbnessthis absence of pain and everythingwhat i was and now am itaste nothing but feel everythingfor i am not dead, yet dying every day is a funeraland i am not the one in the boxeveryday is a new morning to wake to taste itthe night with morningthe morning with tomorrow
