Numb

Numb

A Poem by Onlyme

Numb towards our own feelings
and presents in this world
and what and who
is and are around us.
Closing down the barriers tight!

And up like a steel draw bridge.
Holding all back.
And not letting them enter.
Until one day
the dam breaks
and all emotions
floods and pours
from within out.
The dam has broken
and the pain, hurt, fear
and suffering seeps out from within.
Starting the journey of recovering
and what had been troubling you
and causing you so much numbness
and stifled emotions. 
From escaping in the first place.

Sometimes it takes the breaking of the dam to release all the pain and frustration that has been pent up for so long. Dawn - I hope all is well with you.

Take care - Dave

Let the dam break, and the emotions run free. Fight the numbness, and feel the world around us.

we let pain and sorrow numb us...at first that might be a good thing, but in the end, better when the dam breaks and we can let it all out...otherwise the emotions can just eat us alive...
