~Feel Nothing~


I yearn to feel nothing

I hope to move on

I will get better

 

These are the lies that  I repeat

Every night before I try and sleep

 

I pray for a slumber that will last an eternity

I pray for a cure and a perfect depressant

I pray that if I do wake, let it be with amnesia

 

Why can’t I just forget you?

Maybe, it’s because I really loved you~
