Numb

To numb to cry,
To numb to feel,
To numb to even,
Know whats real.
I take a razor,
And make slice after slice,
Always so careful,
Always precise.
A few more cuts,
Still no pain.
I'm hollow inside,
I'm borderline insane.
I cannot control
Myself anymore.
I just want to feel,
Like I did before.

    Oh wow, this was awesome.
    'A few more cuts,
    Still no pain.
    I'm hollow inside,
    I'm borderline insane.'
    That was so great. Very very cool my friend, Bravo!

    again, the flow was exceptional. im very impressed with your work. for a 15 year old, you have a crap load of talent within your fingers and paper. i can see you developing more as a writer. you have a simple way of putting emotions into words, and it just latches onto my attention.
    keep up the great work, ill look forward to seeing more of your work

    Sweety, I won't you to take a deep breath and look around you at this wonderful beautiful world around us...full of flaws, yes and full of meaness and crime too but beautiful just the same. Find something inside yourself to hold on to. You have an awesome awesome talent for writing and expressing yourself. Pour all those feelings into your words and then let it go. (((hugs))). I wish I knew what else to say to help.
