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

as far as being "too numb to feel" this poem is clearly "feelings" and sharing them with us is greatly appreciated, thank you, chuck
