When I Stopped Feeling

I am not in contact with my emotions they're distant to me and far away it's been centuries since we've met again ever since the night I let them be torn away I found out early that love holds you back so I cut off all association And now my faux emotions sparkle without any questioning Because everyone only sees my smile And it's not a cry out for help But instead, all that I sprout it for Is to display my independent self So there's no reason for me to have anyone Because I couldn't hold commitment. I can watch from afar easily As I decimate the shipments Because my heart yearns to travel to my mind and I painstakingly won't let it I did this one to myself and now I am secluded
