Emotional Numbness

This emptiness that I’m feeling Its spreading to my veins Somthings holding me back Its like Im in a straight jacket Cant breath, cant see I need to break away I need to break free My hearts getting heavy All my uncryed tears Seem to be stuck in my heart I can feel the blood Dripping in my veins It hurts with every breath Sadness, despair Filling my lungs The sky falling down My world collapsing My legs cemented to the floor My hair flying in the air My shadow disappearing slowly Everythings getting dark Scary shapes near and far There is an utter silence No light no sound Everythings gone All that remains now is a smile its slowly going now jsut a residue A residue of my smile
