Anesthetized

When did the connection between us begin to tear away?

I wish I could remember, so I could mend it together

When did the laughs turn into cries and the happiness begin to die?

I wish I knew, so I could fix this tonight

I don’t want to walk away from you

The coldness that covers me now is unbearable

Whenever you speak it’s like I’m in a downpour

Why can’t you just feel me near?

When did this relationship become such a fear?

I pray to God each night,

Something I never thought I would do

I prayed and believed that maybe things would work

But my tears are still streaming, and they will not stop
