The Melody Sings Poet Rhyme

Numb

Feeling so cold

Chilled to the bone

Tired of staring at the phone

 

Hard as rock

Taking it all

I will not fall

 

Stand through the storm

Tugging on my heart strings

My eyes start to sting

 

A silent tear falls

But I just deal

I pretend I don't feel

 

Take the fears

Take the name calling

All in the fear of falling

 

You hurt me

I act like I don't care

It's just another thing that I bear

 

All this pain

It's how I feel

But I just deal

 

Can't show who I  really am

All these feelings---inside you don't see

They might reveal the real me

 

You try to look inside

I won't ever let you in

My patience is wearing thin

 

I don't know what to do

I can't tell what is real...

I guess I am just too numb to feel

Chuck Keys September 18, 2010 at 10:05 AM as far as being "too numb to feel" this poem is clearly "feelings" and sharing them with us is greatly appreciated, thank you, chuck
