numb

ok so last post you got the lyrics for my favorite song by I Mother Earth, you also got the video for it thanks to steph. love you baby. well this is the poem that was inspired by the song. NOTE: the poem contains some of the lyrics from the song.

"Numb"

I close my eyes to my everyday
As the sun comes crashing down.
And all I wish I had was...
A home.
But when it's all undone,
Could I have been the one
To trust myself with a knife
As I cut away another life.
I'm completly numb.

Here lies the former
Her life is spent
She cried her heart out onto her sleeve
And I took it in my hand,
Gave it a squeeze
As I cut away another life.
I'm completly numb.

I close my eyes to my everyday
Just as the moon drifts away
And all I wish I had was...
A friend
But when I lose the days
In moments when i'm gone
To trust another with a knife
I come crashing down.
I'm compleltly numb.

Here lies the changed
Crumpled on the floor in pain
Tears run down his face.
Cause he has been replaced.
And they took him in their hands
Cut away another life.
I'm completly numb.

And i'm so unwound.
I know in my own way i'm breakin' down
Without screaming out loud
I'm facing up... and reaching out
In the end i'll come around
So shut your mouth!
Cause ii can't stand or yell out
I'm completly numb

But as I stand on the future
A chasm in which I can dive.
All I wish I had was...
Understanding
But when it's all but too late.
And other live are now at stake.
I trust no other with my blade,
Cause i'm completly numb.

Andrew C.

Like i said, i love the song.
