I feel numbwith no angerto sustain meto fill me andhold me tightto keep me goingto provide comfortand warmthwhen alone,no pain to remindme mortal I amto remind methat I live..Now just numbfor the pain has past,or just hiddenbut the anger is goneand I am numband lost,music once held me,now it is drearyand boring,no effect just numb,feeling nothing,but the empty voidthat was my hate,anger and pain.So I am just numb.
