There is a silence that doesn’t sound quiet,
it presses, it hums, it stays.
The body is bare, not for desire,
but because there is nothing left to hide.
No energy to be seen as whole,
no strength to pretend it doesn’t hurt.
Everything feels distant,
even from within.
Time moves, people move,
but something inside refuses to follow.
Stuck in a space that has no edges,
no exit, no reason.
Breathing becomes mechanical.
Existing becomes a task.
And the hardest part,
is not the pain.
It’s how normal everything else looks
while you are quietly disappearing.
