If I Were Numb
If I were numb,
To the pain,
To the burn,
To the lies.
If I were numb,
To the needles
In my nerves,
As I cry.
If I were numb,
To the sorrow,
To the anger,
To the fear.
If I were numb,
To every diagnosis,
Every joke,
Every tear.
If I were numb,
To the hate
That I feel
For myself.
If I were numb,
To the relationships,
To the joy
I put on the shelf.
If I were numb,
To every word,
To every look
Sent my way.
If I were numb,
Then I would have
Nothing
Left to say.
