NUMB
this life of mine
tattered and in shreds
face spitted
mercilessly
your voice ringing
I dare not listen
your promises
they're a clanging cymbal
you left me with nothing
my reflection
I dare not look into
it despicably mocks
how I yearn to feel again
the complexities of love
tremors of jealousy that stabs
to see tear-stained pillows
to feel the pain of losing
the retching joy of finding
those beguiling moments
be encountered once more
and soon shall my heart pumps
with life in its veins
to cure this numbness
I’m still feeling within.
Serene, I enjoyed the writing and emotion here. So many people in this world wanting to bring others down.... I pity them more than anything. Keep the faith and keep writing!!
Wow! it's written so elegantly.
