Numbness
~*~
It so cold outside, Its raining hard
The clouds are dark and grim
But no more grim than the darkness
Of the pain I feel within..
The darkness it engulfs me
It wraps around my soul
I can only wish for numbness
For this pain I cant control
Shall I write until my thumb bleeds
My hand bruised , My fingers seized
Ill carve words unto the page until it sets
Slipping back into the darkness
Yearning for a sleep with no regrets
Locked in silent madness
Infesting my mind with drowning memories
Hoping that prose will let me find my sleep
Trying to find a dream thats mine to keep
This darkness will continue without a fight
For theres no reason for hope without the light..
