unedited...unengaged...unloved
i took the ring off my finger one time
it just didnt feel right
but i was just numb
when i took it off tonight
i just dont understand
how you could 'change your mind'
i cant even think
i cant even cry
i wish i could drink
i wish i could die
but i cant do a thing
i cant sleep
how could you do this to me?
i loved you more than any one person could love another but you killed me you kill any love i could ever have for any person ever again
you killed my heart and my soul
but its ok now
i'm just numb

Nik

i was once in love and happy...but you can call me Sadness.

Oh no! Not you, not numb, not even comfortably numb in this jagged edged piece. *HuGS

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

yeah, it did just hurt to read this, I have a small idea though, how about splitting that almost last line up....perhaps make it three lines....just an idea, but hey, I loved it, I love all poems that speak truth, even the sour make your face pucker so hard you think it's gonna fall off truth.  Write on!

I know how this feels...I think when pain and pleasure cancel each other out or when the pain just gets too bad, we get numb. I claim self-defense...works for me.
