My jaw is frozen Ice and fire creep up my numb face Circling my eye with gentle hands Tingling across my stiff lips They call it 'filling,' but when I touch it It feels invisible, empty Unreceptive or responsive Numb like dead feet What a curious feeling That numb is

Numb
My jaw is frozen Ice and fire creep up my numb face Circling my eye with gentle hands Tingling across my stiff lips They call it 'filling,' but when I touch it It feels invisible, empty Unreceptive or responsive Numb like dead feet What a curious feeling That numb is
I went to the dentist for my first-ever filling, and can't get over how weird the freezing feels
