Numb

Blarg, more emo poetry. .3. Moar venting.

Years ago
We used to be light
Two bulbs shining bright
An unbreakable bond
Then the demons broke out
Shattered the future
What we used to have left
Was a false imitation of love
Cold, black, and riddled with past faults
That was no friendship
That was a bond of anger
What you don't understand
Is that I had feelings too
Not just you
You used to speak to me
Words ripped with malice
You never cared when you took me back
At least, you never showed it
Now it is my turn to speak
And I'm not backing off
You think you're never wrong
You think you're better than us
Well, wake up
Because you're only human
And so are we
So cut the lies and stop
Because I cannot have an opinion
I will today. I will NOW
I should treat you right?
I should be better than the freak I am?
Well, guess what, princess?
You are no better than I am.
So cut the crap
I'm numb from your scars
And your glass through my veins
Maybe later I will think "straight"
Until I mean more to you
Than I do to myself.
Just because of one person
You are upset and angry
Give it up.
I won't change my mind
Like the words of my destiny carved in wood
I won't stop healing from your wounds
As life won't stop for you.

Author's Note

This is more venting work, obviously. It's not against anyone (well, anymore). What do you think of it?
