Soul Crushing Numbness

Horror things aren't scary anymore Neither deformed faces nor the creepy lore Doesn't startle me the way they used to Doesn't make the stomach beg for a loo I guess this is what numbness feels like the ghost inside and out seems alike The inner demons carry more suspense When they come and give a nasty glance Their babble makes impeccable sense Does fake eerie music stand a chance? The rapid breathing, the pale face No longer have any grace Darkness looks so captivating It always manages to keep me waiting Every day I wait for intense nightmares Desperate to feel emotions, all its layers
