Numbing

by A Fallen Dancer   May 26, 2008


I am numb,
Ive been frozen,
My heart, touched by frost.
I cannot feel anything,
Nothing can hurt me,
And nothing will break through.
This barrier of ice,
Cannot be pierced.
You can keep trying,
And your hands can keep bleeding,
But youll never reach me.
Here, enclosed in this cage,
I am forever safe.
I dont want to be free.
Why cant you understand that?
You cant rescue me,
Its too late for heroics.
Ive already succumbed,
To that which will protect me.
As long as I am here,
I wont feel any pain.
You cant hurt me anymore.
Just walk away.
I dont want to be looked after.
I just want to freeze,
To be like ice, cold and sharp.
No warmth is left within me,
And now no one can reach me,
For I am already lost,
Though to me this is freedom.
Ive become what I used to fear.
I am numb.
