From Numb to.. comfortably numb


I'm not sure if you would understand these writings. I think you cannot really catch it until you really experience it.
The feeling of being put under the pressure of walking in their shoes, and although you know that every step you take is another mistake to them, it continues, you continue and they continue in a non stop drama.


Here we are falling in that consequence of what I can call "Obligatory choices!!", I struggle for my dreams, thoughts and believes.. I have certainty that I'm right, I have certainty that I may end up failing too.. and all what I want is to have the chance to try and to be more like me!!


In contrary, they continue holding more tightly afraid to lose control, suffocating me and my dreams as everything that they thought I would be is falling apart right in front of them.

After a while, as you can see, I become so numb, tired of being what they want me to be, feeling so faithless lost under the surface...
Numb but still trying to struggle, numb but trying to live and stand.

After a longer while, you begin to lose hope.. saying to yourself: "It can ease your pain if you stop thinking about it".


They make you some idiot Do3'a, glad to see you "improving" on the "pills of advice" which they've always been making you swallow.



You know, it's as if you're bleeding, you're losing soul, while an idiot moron says: "Relax, I need some information first! Can you show me where it hurts?!".

But, in spite of the pain killing me, I move my lips to reply saying one thing:
I cannot explain, you would not understand. This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb!!

And inside me I know. When I was walking alive, I caught a bright ambitious dream, just out of the corner of my eye. I turned to look but it was gone, I cannot put my finger on it now. The man is grown, the dream is gone.I have become comfortably numb.


I realize that every second I waste is more than I can take, but at the same time I know that so much more aware I'm becoming and the time to be more like me and less like my parents hasn't come yet.

Until that, my soul is furled, my anthem has been shifted from
Numb to comfortably numb.


14 اللي طرقعولي:

AbdElRaHmaN Ayyash يقول...

your only problem is in your sense
You are very ambitious, struggler and moral
this comfortably numb ( I needed to translate this word ) is good to some extent.
you know that you can do the right, don't wait for the chance, you will create it .
I believe that your inner beauty will defeat this all crisis
believe me Amr, you are the man
just believe me
salam

AbdElRaHmaN Ayyash يقول...

and don't delay your response like every comment :@
:D but i really cheered from your last comment on my one
salam again

i have been comfortable numb for many long years, i knew i couldn't freely choose, all my choices were obligatory, there was no other way, maybe there was but i couldn't see it at that time, trying to fight only lead to failure, don't think about it, it is good for your mental health and mine :P

rabha يقول...

You always impress me, having such a good expression in such a bad mood means that you are really talented.
Sifting from numb to comfortably numb doesn't mean that you have lost your soul or your free will, but could mean that you have gain a new talent that could help you coexisting with all annoying events you face in life. We may feel defeated when our dreams do not come true, when our plans are stopped by others' plans, but one day when we score at least one gain, when we witness a new dream coming true, we will realize then that we couldn't reach a gain without tasting defeat, all counts

Amr Magdi يقول...

hahaha

Waaeeeel

your presence with your unique name rejoice me man!

you're truely right, i'm now totally convinced that thinking about it all the time doen't make it differ except making you more depressed.

It's all up to you, to stop thinking until this round is ended or to change your direction now and forever.

glad to see you ..

Amr Magdi يقول...

Rabha,

thank you for passing here, i really appreciate it.

you may be right but sometimes these bad moods and failures and too long occupying just the best years of ur lifes

you try to kill that calling inside you, telling yourself that the best hasn't come yet but it sometimes seems that it may never come

Dear Amr , I Dunno why i felt that part was in the target, it like touched my bones from inside , while you still try to find out how this life is trying to make you look like , you get a lot of affection from inside and outside ,, it's more than just a writing ,,
