A Refuge Found by J.C. Fuentes - HTML preview

Numbness

Pain is sometimes a welcoming feeling,

I know that sounds strange but let me elaborate,

Often times I do not feel,

I am simply numb,

My emotions are sealed,

And my insides start to peel,

I walk alone even when surrounded by a crowd of people,

I become a car broken down with no wheels,

I soon cannot move and am temporarily paralyzed,

My thoughts are trapped inside like a caged bird is confined.

With no escape I yell for help but this sadness is like an ocean,

And I begin drowning with no one to see me struggle,

So down I go deeper and deeper into darkness.
