Poem with a hidden message. Can you figure it out?
How can the absence be so painful?
How can the numbness be so consuming?
How can everyone go on around me?
How can happiness be so dooming?

Each day passing by unnoticed
Every hour stretching on forever
Each minute passes with no event
Every second an arduous endeavor

Life seems to be doomed
Little things no longer fulfilling
Longing for more
Living life unwilling

Pain is only felt when physical
People began to fade away
Pleasure no longer exists
Please stop the dismay

How can the absence be so painful?
Escaping it seems hopeless
Life keeps moving on
Prickling overlooked progress

How can the numbness be so consuming?
Every inch of my body in its drench
Lethargic in its presence
Piercing silence its only quench

How can everyone go on around me?
Easily escaping the hurt
Living as if there is no damage
Poignant oblivion as they avert

How can happiness be so dooming?
Elation brings me pain
Life no longer worth living
Pleasure posses as feign
