Numb

Posted by TheMelancholySpitfire on

When I say I’m numb,
It’s not for lack of feeling,
It’s still there,
under the surface,
humming,
but I don’t feel like melting where I stand,
a pool of tears,
no masks for my sadness.

    I enjoy reading your poetry. I relate quite a bit to the emotions you are putting out. Very powerful stanzas! Thank you 🙂

      Thanks so much for reading and your feedback. I know it’s not always fun to relate, but I’m glad I can get my feelings across.
