I'm not going to lie.
A piece of me died today.
The part of me that I saved for you.
For the rest of my life.
I'm not going to lie.
And say that it didn't hurt like hell.
Hearing the truth from your lips
Ripped my heart open
And left behind...nothingness.
A shell of knowing that
I did all I could.
And it was not good enough.
And never will be.
So now, as I sit here
I can feel the numbness creeping up on me
And wrapping its arms around my rib cage
Just tight enough to make me feel oddly put together
And never tight enough to make me feel loved
But nevertheless... I welcome it.
Numbness is bliss
