Numb
Silently she holds her breath,
the doctor ran out of anaesthetics,
she bit hard on the china,
the blood surges out profusely,
streams of tears flow.
She knows she is alive,
very much.
The tears are more then it seems,
she couldn’t believe what she learned to know,
all these years what seems to be of lies,
all these years of trust,
all these while..
Staring at her bonnet and her torn corset,
all she felt was numb.
