I can still remember the feelings.
The sounds.
The smells.
The atmosphere.
Everything. Even though it's been what seems like an eternity, all I have to do is think. Remember. I don't have to try hard for the memories to come flooding back to me.
I remember what it was like to stand outside. During the winter, I would stand in the snow. No jacket, no winter boots. Nothing. I would go out in a thin sweater and just my converse. No one would know. I'd lie on the snow, and I'd feel the delicious chills. It wasn't painful. I could lie there, but not for long. Sometimes I would stand outside with no shoes and no sweater. I remember the smell of the frozen air, and I can still feel the cold prick at my skin. I used to describe it as pins and needles. I was numb to everything. I guess I just wanted to feel something other than the emptiness.
