Feelings,
why do you haunt me so?
Why is it I can't turn you off,
or ask you please to go?

Why do you override my strength,
make me follow where you lead,
then stay around to watch the aftermath,
make me weep and see me bleed?

Sometimes I pray you would abandon me.
Without feeling there's no pain.
Would numbness really be so bad,
that I would want you back again?

What happened to the other times,
when you were great to have around?
Why do you now seem so intent,
on seeing this soul drowned?

If thats your plan then leave me now,
because I want to leave no doubt.
The feeling thats I've had of late,
I can surely do without.
