Emotionally Numb'

I like seeing myself smile Happiness was new I Only felt it for a moment Fleeting feelings deep inside Emotionally numb As I ran away to a dark place where I would hide... Then I was alone And I would cry Feeling pain Waiting to die .... My emotions were deep I had fear Mostly when I would lay down to sleep My dreams would scare me But I didn't tell Another about that place called hell ... Because After all it was but a dream. One day I'll wake Not Wanting to scream.
