Numb


I cry but tears won’t fall

I hurt but words won’t explain

I try to express but only nothing

Now I wanna know

If I dream can I pursue?

If I trust can I trust you?

I just want love

I want to feel true love

I don’t want pain

I don’t want to feel this

The invisible wound

That people create

My mind is corrupt

My body erupt and I even

Gave a piece of myself away

To someone I thought would help me

Help me cry with tears

Give me words to explain the pain

Thought they would help me be okay
