This is almost like
Procedure.

I can't feel a thing.

The pain is still there I just
Can't feel the sting.


Just when you feel as if I
Could float

I wind up with scraped knees.

'It always appeared so much farther to the ground

Just when I thought I could
Lose myself in his eyes'.

I drown.

This is amazing - it's impossible to only read once. You captured so much in so little words. Love it!
