self-discovery

my hands are cold.

it is an ephemeral feeling
of turning to stone.

emotionless. empty.
a weird sort of free.

i clench my fists,
embracing the cold on my fingertips
and thank god for plunging me into darkness.

i accept this side of me
though no one else does.

the hurt will fade, they say
but healing is no longer my attempt.

i legalize this pain
as cold as the palm of my hands
that never receive enough bloodflow.

i am a new me
unsure of who i am
but sure of a situation
i know i will never escape from.
