Being Numb Is Dangerous

I saw a post
On facebook today.
As stupid as it sounded
"Being a savage doesn't
Fix that hole in your heart"
Resonated with me
In a way Im less
Than comfortable with.
This heart of mine
Is nothing but
A long forgotten wreckage.
Who we used to be is such
A distant memory
All I can remember is pain
And I question
Why I couldn't
Make you love me.
And yet I still
won't allow myself
To acknowledge
Just how detrimental
Those years were
I finally understand
Andrea Gibson
When she said
"I feel like an
Ambulance
Rushing to
Make it on time
But the person
Is already dead inside.
Im already dead inside"
Being numb is dangerous
You fool yourself
Into thinking youre living
Even though its already
Been years since
You've  left this life.





Its been over a year since ive written. Im rusty, but glad to be back du!
