Numbness
What lies to you?
What tricks you?
What feelings
Do you pursue?
Numbness
A short escape
A quick fix
It's all here
You're stuck with this
Numbness
Masking truth
Faded line
An altered reality
Your losing time
Numbness
What good ever came from nothing?
Numbness doesn't give you something
Stop the riddle
Stop the game
I condemn it
This hellish name
Numbness
Your heart is racing
Overwhelming conviction
Is this my choice
Or an addiction?
Numbness
Doesn't matter
What you do
Even the dead
Feel numbness too

I'm so glad this resonated! I guess we share this in common... perhaps the worst part of numbness is not knowing how deep you actually go, no feeling to hint you, just lost in nothing. As always, thank you for your kind words :)
