Five Senses
Take away my sight
I no longer want to see
I want to be blind to this destruction in the wake
Take away my ears
I no longer want to hear
I cannot bear to hear the sounds of sobs racking bodies
Take away my tongue
I no longer want to taste
I do not want to taste your sweetness upon my mouth anymore
Take away my nerve endings
I no longer want to feel
The scratchieness of your face the velvet of your hands
Take away my smell
I no longer want you scent to cling
The one of your cologne and musk of you and you alone
Take it all away
For the love of God please!
Make me blind, deaf, numb, and dumb
just take it all away. make me just a shell
