Truly Numb

Some think to utter you are numb is dumb.
  Like a frayed twine, emotion becomes blind.
   Can't cry, could only voice a toneless sigh.
    Death feels like a release, all pain shall cease.
      
      Closed doors, screams as piercing as a lions roars.
        Drawn same as an, acutely ailing fawn.
          Neglect safety, Pain is rather tasty.
            Carefree, agreed to a imprecise glee.
              
               Agreed, an impossibility to proceed.
                 Truly planned end, had become soiled by an old friend.
  
                    Yes indeed to be truly numb is ultimately dumb.

"Closed doors, screams as piercing as a lions roars." This is fantastic writing, especially my favorite line which I put first here.
