Numb-ered...

Numb-ered...

Deepening with intention

I have many a thing I wish to mention

First, time is but a joke with no punch-line anyone can enjoy

Second seems to be life, an opportunity similar to an ever-changing

Third is a word I here too often, too late

One that shows only after the fact, after fate

Fourth is but that word forgiving time for taking its next step, continue its motion

Fifth is knowing what could, would, & should be done with such devotion

Sixth will never be anything more than possibly

The part we can always wonder about, leaving us with different kinds, & levels of doubt

Seven is the emotion left & made from such a storm of thought never settled into peace, or any form calming

Eight is but a look back at things we wish more than life we could change

Anyone who says otherwise truly is, to me, strange...

Nine is a fake smile hiding everything that isn't kind, or easily forgotten

Ten can be knowing, or doubt growing into a feeling of wrong, or being rotten

Eleven is but double what "one" should even be...

Continuing through the repetition of number that always have had meaning to me...

"I'm at a nine today... but it'll pass... it always does... some way..."
