hidden under a blanket of numb
your fire
has expired
sending up exhausted
puffs of steam
the dullness in your eyes
comes
because the capacity for smiles
was destroyed with the tears
that all lie dried up
in a dark well
that now echoes
daily with
a silent lament
heavily obscured
underneath
the cover of numb
I identify with numb. I know it to well. Great writing. 💗

Sometimes, forcing ourselves to become, numb, that is, the only way we have, to, survive…
