anodyne for the wretched soul

they dumped me!
yes they did.
and for the life of me,
i succumbed to the pain
reeking inside the once-placid halls of my existence.

i was muted in disbelief
when i first heard it.
but when it finally sunk in,
i felt a dagger leaving my venter
then a profuse gush streaming through the incision.

shaken, aghast with their valid torment.
however, i no longer can dwell on what has elapsed.
can i move on? or shall i persist?
for now, how do i find solace? how do i find calm?
even if it's fleeting, i need it.
even if it's way beyond me, i'd nourish it.

give me my anodyne. 
...

numbed.
