Emotionally numb

Emotionally numb.

Sitting here in the emptiness,
My mind in a void of emptiness,
As I try to make sense of it all,
But all I feel is a lonely fall.

My broken heart just thumps along,
As I try to find where I belong,
But the emptiness consumes me whole,
Leaving me with a hollow soul.

I try to pour out all my pain,
But my words seem to be in vain,
For in this emptiness there's no one around,
No caring, no feel, no sound.

My thoughts and emotions are in a blur,
As I search for a glimmer of hope to occur,
But all I find are empty echoes,
In this void of emptiness that seems to grow.

I want to break free, to feel alive,
But in this emptiness, I struggle to survive,
My numbness moves along,
As I try to find where I belong.

So I sit here in the emptiness,
Lost in my own thoughts of emptiness,
Hoping one day, this void will disappear,
And I'll emerge from the emptiness, clear.

Inspired by the feeling empty inside.

    P h a n t o m step
    dried clay tracks
    Stage lights
    arching as a bridge
    S e q u i n s
    indifferent
    Dance steps
    sawdust in the shoes
    G l a z e d eyes
    scans razor sharp
    The sound of the blacksmith's anvil
    kills the piggy bank
    S e a g u l l scream
    opens up to fear
    C l a m digging
    in gravel and sand bottoms
    One white shirt
    flutters in the wind
    T r a c k i n g the deer
    knee high boots
    Don't run away
    tax to pay
    A quiet retreat
    soul's goal
    Thoughts and e m o t i o n s
    internal growing stalk
    S i l e n c e speaks in volume
    still roaring
    the tempest

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.

Emotionally Scarred

© Francis Maugo
 Try not to trust my words;
they're lies that I manufacture to
project an ideal life and
persuade you I'm OK.

Try not to believe my words
For I was once enslaved into 
Drinking and drugs.
Furthermore, the isolation
I received from my fellow
Teaching staffs, the excommunication
Stigmatization was the order of the day.

Try not to believe the grin you see;
it's a veneer to hide
burning agony, intense disgrace,
sheer despair.
Its the scars i got from the depression 
I suffered.

Try not to get tricked by my chuckling;
it is just a reverberation
of empty internal parts, longing
for faculties to return.
Try not to get persuaded by my lucidity and request;
borne in endeavor to
control the disarray
furthermore conciliate the situation unfolding inside.

Try not to be dazed by
The flawlessness I radiate,
The boldness I counterfeit,
The honesty I fake,
The certainty I wear 
For I'm broken into pieces

An Emotionally Lethargic Seeker of Sorts

i am listening to this song
there will never be another you
tears roll down my face slowly
i remember the look on her face
i recall the eerie quiet
i will never forget wishing that she could have died peacefully and painlessly

i am listening to to this song
there will never be another you
the rain begins to fall
the wind begins to cry
the sky cannot contain her dark emotions
things will never be the same in this frigid world of monotony

i am listening to this song
there will never be another you
a trip sounds so good right now
reality and the situation within is speaking way louder
instead, i decide to go and park someplace quiet and undisturbed
this is the only place i feel like being a seeker of today

Premium MemberEmotionally Abstract

Emotionally abstract; 
A rush of beautiful tears
leave behind discolored eyes; 
All the passion fading 
into the painting of her smile; 
Chipping with every slow drop 
puddles form chaotic shapes    
casually described as art;   

They see a masterpiece 
in the splatter of geometry, 
overlooking her face so 
emotionally distraught; 
Worshipping the body of work 
 she left behind; 

Reconstructed over time 
whispers of the past like art so abstract; 
Painting the star crossed eyes of future artists 
who embellish the magic of folklore.

Premium MemberEmotionally Scarred

He loved,but could not say
such words,he could not find;
He loved,but could not touch
such warmth,was just too much;
He was proud,but could not praise
such sounds he could not raise;
He supported,but not with words
such feelings,witheld unheard;
Sentiment,tight reined within
banished,unvoiced by him,
embittered by his own hurt,
a scarred child 'neath his hairshirt.

In the past,his crippled emotions lay
imprisoned,unsaid,'til his dying day.

Emotionally Exhausted

Dont want to pour my heart out on this sheet
The only thing you seem to want from me
Is between my legs thighs and cheeks
Lips mouth and esophagus
And to you thats all I am worth
Why shed tears for one that doesnt have the slightest emotion to gather or muster up a  or a care
I Hate the fact that I love you
I Hate how affectionate I am towards you
I Hate that you neglect my emotions 
Set aside my feelings and remain in the state of oblivion to what it means to actually be there for me
Abuse my vulnerabilities
Cast aside my insecurities
Laugh at my tears
My Heart I still give and you act as if its not even there
I prayed to God tonight to please erase the feelings I have for you
Truly and Sincerely, I hope he does that for me
I Appreciate all of his blessings
Dont want to ask for too much
But this one...I really need

Premium MemberEmotionally Bludgeoned-

Beige
Copper 
Tan 
What kind of mess I am? 
Disintegrated misappropriated bludgeoned;
Love and peace is coming;
Deep inside the heart,
it is dark; 
There is a light, 
that flickers on bright; 
As the dawn purple blue and red royalty fit as it bleeds slight;
Sadden been hit, struck over, over, over again

Premium MemberEmotionally Intuitive

Emotionally,
a wordsmith, caregiver, plant tender, embroiderer;
enjoy studying esoteric astrology, being in nature and dancing,
daydream of owning land, living remotely, publishing.
Sadness lives in me over global greed, power thirst, cruelty,
I fear Burger King's king, public speaking, being alone when old;
wish I could promote self-love, peace and forgiveness for all,
resident of the human condition as God's child.

Emotionally Blackmailed

Emotionally blackmailed
Though corporate man I am

Last night I watched a social movie
I wept with them, wiped the tears secretly

this morning I remember
that was just an acting,
where the tears part of film
actors and actresses use glycerin

Love Emotionally

He said to me
I see her
She see me
I look into her eyes
Love emotionally
She said,don't even want to see you
I knew that wasn't true
Knew that was a lie
I just couldn't say goodbye
I love her
she love me
Love emotionally
Before she walked out the door
I took her hand
I'm just not ready to let her go
Then she let me know the truth
She say, "don't really want to leave you"
I said, then don't
I'll never leave you. I promise I wont
We can work this out
Please stay with me
Love emotionally
