Numb

I feel like

My heart’s been

Stabbed

And impaled

Through the floor

Because

I’m dying on the inside

And there isn’t a cure

Pain so complex

I can’t put into words

So instead

I scream it

And see if that works

You see

I can’t tell whether

I’m drowning

Or if my body has burned

Because

It seems like

I’m either in hell

Or somewhere submerged

 

And so,

My soul’s been

Rotting

And gotten

To the point where

I can feel

Myself

Slipping away

To the point where

I can practically

TOUCH my

Own grave

As I’m condemned to

Dig it

Deeper

And deeper,

By the day, hour, and second

I’m here on this earth

To decay

This sinner’s soul

Became

A wrenched

Filthy

Rendering

Of what’s

No longer

More

What’s more,

I can feel my mind

Going to waste

Becoming nothing but

Empty space

 

I’m no longer the same

 

About to crash and burn

Flying this plane

We call fate
while going nowhere at an

Extraordinary rate

Because I’m

Being driven insane
trying to stop this pain

And I’ve

Already overdosed                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Twice

On Novocain  

 

This misery knocks at my door

And I

Didn’t want to let it in

But it still

Managed

To rob me

Of my

Happiness

Now my heart

Has been

Broke-in

Bleed-ing

Out

To this day

 

My humanity left

Thrown out

my viewing frame

Leaving me

Looking at my

Widow pain

Because the only thing I can see now is

Broken, inner shame

 

My ears still ring

From the outcries

I have made

Overwhelmed

By all the voices

Inside my brain

In fact

It got so annoyed

It went down

Psychopath

And yonder lane

After that,

It jumped

In

And out of

Thought’s own train

It committed suicide 

I’m brain dead

Nowadays

 

Nowadays

I can’t figure out why

I can’t get my head straight,

Psychiatrists thought they can do it with a jacket

Oh, how wrong were they

 

So instead
I’m left to cry it all away

But I’m running

Out of tears

I’m becoming

Numb

To the pain

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Sorry if I haven't been writing a lot lately. I've just really been busy with other things. I know this may seem a little like a repetition of my other poem "Insanity", but I have just been having a really hard time coming up with something good. (Just to note, I just try to make the word choice in my poems as strong as possible. I also just tend to be very emotional at times. I AM NOT EXTREMELY TROUBLED!!!!!!!! I AM FINE!!!!!!!!!! NO NEED TO WORRY ABOUT MY PERSONAL WELL-BEING!!!!!) And please, just give me your honest opinion on it. Thanks.
