So Numb

by Stephen Fade, September 2002

I'm feeling so numb
It's all so unbelievable
So surreal it hurts to imagine
What it's going to be like
When it finally sinks in
A feeling so horrible
So painful it hurts
Just to think about it
Only those who've felt it
Can truly understand
A numbness
So unforgiving
It comes and goes as it pleases
Still feeling so numb
I gaze into your face
Breathing heavy now
I want to
Kiss and hold you
One final time
But the numbness left me
So painfully fast
My body froze
Couldn't even flinch
My mind went blank
Couldn't find a thought
It feels as though
I've been ran over
By a semi-truck
Or two
Wishing for
The numbness to return
No matter how numb
It can never
Fog or fade
How much I'm missing you
