Purgatory

The rage and grief begin to fade

The constant ache

of loneliness

retreats

Emotions fade

to nothingness

as a numbing fog steals over my very soul

The only true feeling is fear

I feel myself stepping out of my body

Watching as my world crumbles

through sightless eyes,

empty soul

I fear

I'll never again feel passion

and joy

or even the anger

or despair
