Numb

by LadyPearl   Aug 12, 2006


Years of lost control
Notes bound to the soul
Let me be free from you
The addiction I am through
If you read my face
You can see disgrace
I'm but a ghost of you
A personality askew

I wanna be more like me
Not some fake reality
Hiding beneath plaster
Submitting to disaster
I'm just a white clone
Wearing Death's cologne
Numb before my death
Sketching out every breath

Kiss me as the night sings
As ice drips from my wings
Watch every shadow crawl
Closer to your Brawl
Into my revealing core
You turn me up for more
But I can't feel anymore
Just a plain lonely Decor

I wanna be more like me
Not some fake reality
Hiding beneath plaster
Submitting to disaster
I'm just a white clone
Wearing Death's cologne
Numb before my death
Sketching out every breath

    I REALLY loved the phrases you used in here. Especially about ice dripping off your wings....amazing! I think you're extremely talented. And I saw a comment you gave someone else about rhyming and I totally agreed with you...I think your rhyme scheme was great so keep it up! 5/5!

    This is a beautifully melancholy and sad poem(as many I write, so I can relate, especially to this as numbness is a sweet oblivion to pain)).I love the repeat of verse 2 and 4.You have such unique images and meanings here, and an excellent rhyme and flow-so natural,the meaning and feelings so very emotional and heartfelt and honest, it really affects one upon reading it..Excellent piece.

    Awesome poem. Keep up the good work. And to answer your previous question, yes, i read every word of it, some sections twice. I don't just read them fast. I make sure i get everything in and then find the meaning in the poems. It was excellent and I enjoyed reading it all. Just like this one, great job.
