Numb
There is nothing I am hoping for.
There is not even anything I am waiting for.
I no longer care about who I can trust.
I suppose I must trust the first person who emerges from the fog.
Even if they have been following me for the wrong reasons-
I would rather have a stranger by my side.
I suppose I am numb to the pleas of my own family.
Who now live just outside my memory.
