i don't feel

lights, fires
they're supposed to live in your eyes.

when did this become
such a surprise

you can come to me
but you can't care

you can look at me
but please don't stare

we are the ones that love
we are the ones that love not
we are the ones that hold
we are the ones that sold you

i don't feel
this is
scary as emotions
running wild

i don't feel
kneeling down before you
just a child

i don't feel
can't you fuckers get it?
i've come right out and said it

don't tell me to smile,
just let me know
where you are

i try to find you
try to see
why everything about you
changed with me
i swear i don't care
no, i'm lying
while you sleep
i sit there crying

Nicely written

I wish you'd wake me up and tell me this.
I wish you'd let me in a little more.
I guess we both need to let each other in...
nice writing.

Yep you can certainly want people to believe you don't feel sometimes and put up a strong pose but deep down we are all human.. the people who pose to be untouchable or unharmable are usually the ones hurting the most.. the most afraid to let others in... been there.. thank you for sharing.. great work!!!
