I search for myself in the vast emptiness.
Darkness and shattered pieces are all I find.
I feel like a ghost.
Like an imaginary person.
My brain and skin are numb.
My heart is cold.
There is nothing here.
I contemplate feelings.
Emotions.
What makes a Person a Person?
What defines Real from Imaginary?
Is it touch?
I decide to see.
The blade cuts my skin.
Blood flows.
Pain is practically nonexistent.
It doesn't hurt.
Does that mean I'm not real?
I listen to music,
but whatever energy it has is adding to the cold.
To the empty.
All I am is numb,
no matter what I think about.
All I can do is wonder...
What now?
