Lady on the roadside

Numb…

Numb to the core of the heart…

Past the pain

Beyond the feelings,

A silent protest,

An embargo on senses.

Self-defense,

Self-preservation,

Perhaps the sole refuge…

Tired bones

Weary senses

Seek the sanctuary of

Silence.

She just rests there

Eyes closed

Torn clothes,

Not begging,

Not asking,

Not beseeching company

Not pleading sympathy.

Just hidden in her rags

The grimy platform forgotten

The relentless sun ignored.

She sleeps on,

Or at least pretends to

She is past caring about the world.
