Do you ever get that feeling in your chest, it's not a sinking feeling per say, but rather a sucking feeling? A feeling that's pulling at every ounce of your happiness. You can feel it throughout your body, pulling away all the emotions and leaving behind nothing but a vast expanse of nothingness.
It starts by seeping away from your toes, you feel it leave your feet and retract up. It's horrifying, knowing what will happen next.
It's there, in your chest, that it hurts the most. Your body shrinks backwards, forcing yourself to want to curl into a foetal position and cry, because you need to feel more than this nothing.
And it's constant, and nothing more than that dull ache. Feeling useless, feeling every emotion leave you, rendering you useless
and you want to cry, but why should you? someone will always have it worse, someone will always hurt more than you. you're insignificant. useless. your suffering is nothing compared to the scale and you are nothing either.
that's what the nothingness is reminding you. you're useless. crazy, stupid thoughts are running around your head and you know this it is.
you are nothing
and you cannot hold on to this nothing
it will never stay
for it, like you, are forgotten.
