Numb

Numb
I sit here and wonder,
what have I become?
I am falling under,
my mind is growing numb.
I am drowning in my fears,
lost to this strange feeling,
locking away forbidden tears,
hiding wounds that are not healing.
Can you help me still,
or will you throw me aside?
Once you see the tears won't spill,
once you see I have not cried.
Will you say 'I didn't love you.'?
Will you say 'I'm over it!'?
Will you say 'I'm above you.'?
Will you say 'Get over it!'?
Well I keep on trying,
now I'm over love in all it's shades,
But I keep on crying,
watching as our friendship fades,
As it falls away to nothingness!
Ignorance is eternal bliss!
So please leave me in the darkness,
But let me see you once again,
like all those times back when,
we used to be more than friends.
But now our friendship's fading,
hearts are hurtful are you hating?
me for all I've put you through?
Is this old or is it new?
I sit here and wonder,
what have I become?
I am falling under,
my mind is growing numb.
I am going numb.

Great piece. Good structure.
Numb. Personally, I prefer numb to pain myself.
Losing a loved one sucks, and it does rip a piece of us away with it. Questioning what have you become is a valid, sorry state.
A quote from Nietze: Whatever doesn't kill us makes us stronger.
I'm guessing by now, you're "strong like bull". Another quote from ____? A silly movie I think.

Good write.

Slipping into despair, and depression, thats what I see from this dark and heartbreaking poem. Saddness at a love that once was, and now is no longer. It's only lucky those feelings fade over time. XX
