Numb Poem by Autumn Hanna

I can't feel your anger, your words don't even leave a scratch, I can't feel your icy glare even though it used to be a knife in my back.
I've fell into peaceful darkness, succumbed to this Bliss, I'm still quite alive, but feeling isn't something I miss.
The grief was too heavy and the hatred too much, love was overwhelming and happiness out of touch,
I abandoned your way of living somewhere along the line of light and dark, adjusting to not feeling and prying out my beating heart.
I cast it aside- the last thing holding me back- and filled its hardened void with thoughts cruel and black.
Into the Darkness I stride following its forsaken hum, there are so many new opportunities when you're completely numb.
