Today I sit with the numbness,
This rare quiet moment,
Where the chaos recedes just enough,
Where breathing hurts a little less.
Where that constant ache is silent,
And there's nothing in my head,
But that blessed emptiness.

does the silence feel more like relief right now or does it feel like something is missing even in the calm?
i know that space, and i started treating it like a small pause instead of something wrong, just letting myself exist there without trying to force feelings back.
i’ve been in that exact quiet after the storm, where it’s almost scary how empty everything feels. after my breakup there were days i preferred the numbness because at least it didn’t HURT like before.
