What will it take to feel again? Something other than the feel of skin on skin. This non-emotional mess that I'm living in. Will I ever feel the kind of love that makes your knees weak, or the bone deep hatred that makes your soul weep? Must I be numb to all the things that supposedly make life beautiful? Grass so green that it brings tears to your eyes, the laughter of a child and the preciousness of their smiles.. What is wrong with me? I want to know what it's like to feel human. The only thing I feel is tired, tired of pretending. My smiles are so fake, a **** star would be impressed.
