"NUMB: A Blessing In Disguise" in "RESTLESS: POETICALLY-SPEAKING"

It’s that rare ability
to push aside your emotions
Lock them all within
so you’re left to feel nothing

Voices of the worried
calling you out
trying to remove your doubts
but you choose to cover them up

A weird blessing in disguise
long after the tears you’ve cried
No more putting up with lies
like love, the camouflage of lust

For now,
just enjoy
this rare ability
to feel nothing but numb
even when they worry
your denial and rejection
to the buried pain
are only temporary…
