Numb

Numb
all over
inside and out
until I'm close to you

Numb
no emotions
or feelings
Until we make one from two

It seems like
I walk around without a care in the world
But get you into my arms
my mind starts whirl

Burning passion
and addictive taste
when we hold hands
my heart launches to space

To hug you
is like witnessing God's grace
so surreal
in such a real place

I don't tell you these things
because I get embarrassed and shy
But one thing I promise
 is to never make you cry

Your beauty and intellect
sets you aside
it makes others jealous
turns them from Jekyll into Hyde

But when I am away and on my own
my feelings stay upon your throne
and I walk without smile, speaking monotone

You are the life that breathes colour into me
the key that enables my soul to be free
so addictive that I can't beleive
that you're still interested in me.

My ghostly shell that walks this green earth
had its soul ripped out
And though my soul still weeps and still hurts
my carcass does not shout

But you,
you reunite them again
tying them together with a string
sealing the deal with a pen

For so long I thought
I would walk cold and alone
For so long I fought
no place feeling like home

I felt
Numb
all over
inside and out

Numb
no emotions
or feelings
until you came about
