Learning to Feel

It feels like I can't breathe

And I won't tell me why

No matter how he pleads

Maybe I miss the light from your eyes

Maybe my sanity's said goodbye

 

 

And as quick as they came,

The

demons

are

gone

again.

 

 

The ennui rushes in

And I whisper - I'll heal

I'll run from being comfortably numb,

Ignore the dreadfully appealing

Idea of hiding from feeling

 

All that I can do,

But what terrifies me

Are the thoughts of you.
