Numb

I fell today
But it didn't hurt...
It left no marks,
I didn't bleed.

I cut myself today
But I didn't feel it...
It didn't leave a scar
It didn't even bleed.

I'm just so tired
Of not feeling anything
I've become so numb
I'd rather feel pain

I just want to feel!
I want proof I'm alive
I want to live
I want to feel.

I finally feel something
Since I found you
I feel alive now...
I am no longer numb

You opened my eyes
And helped me feel
I built a wall
around my heart
But you came along
And tore it down.

I just wanted to feel
Just something...
I'd become so numb
I would have rather felt pain.

    There are some great ideas in this poem, partially the second last stanza.
    "You opened my eyes
    And helped me feel,
    I build a wall
    around my heart,
    But you came along
    and tore it down".
    That is my fav part, a new lover to bring back feelings lost. It could do with some more emotion thrown in, but overall a fine write.

    The sixth stanza describes a wonderful feeling of how friendship or intimacy can light up a life
    (but the last stanza is a little bit confusing)>

    It sounds like you found someone special. I think it kicks ass. Great job.
