I prefer not to feel It feels a hell of a lot better than being sad I prefer numb I prefer the silence so loud that it burns through my ears I enjoy the nothing breathing deeper than the ocean I'd rather feel nothing than feel that feeling of almost empty in the bottom of my stomach I hate the twists and turns of my heart I hate the way my gut drops when you say you love me Because I know it isn't real and it never was There are so many lost relationships because of my issues with trust I don't know why but feelings just get in my way So when you say you feel something there Please don't be angry when I say that I do not Please understand when I avoid the question It's not your fault I just do not have the answer you're looking for I would rather say nothing Feel nothing **Be nothing
