Breathe

I fell silent. For the first time I had no strength left to speak, to complain, to explain.
My soul was touched by ice, I was indefferent and it was as if my being aged in one night.
I forgot how it was to be alive, the flow of joy within my bones.
My skin felt as if it had been liked by electricity, my fingertips trembled and I could have sworn I saw sparks fly.
Why again? Why me? Why now?
The air is thick and my judgment clouded.
