Hospital doors opening,
Hospital doors closing.
‘Lift: going down’,
Ground Floor,
Exit-
Feeling numb.

She says how awful it feels to just leave you
but still,
we leave you-

no choice.

Promises already broken-
feeling numb.

Car doors opening,
car doors closing,
driving home,
getting home,
(can’t remember getting home),
Feeling numb.

Getting into bed,
sitting up in bed,
the finality of it hits,
I don’t want this to be it.
7 months later-
still feeling numb.
