Numb

Stuck in a world of darkness.
A prisoner of my mind.
Searching for a way out,
But lost in translation.
Deeper and deeper I dig myself
Into this whole with no escape.

Each pull, each hit, every drink, every pill
Starts to numb the pain away.
As my thoughts begin to wander,
Everything fades away like a bitter memory.

But it doesn't last as long anymore.
Up the dosage, more pulls,
Take more, mix them all together.
Whatever it takes to be numb again.

I sit in the corner as the familiar feeling sinks in.
Paralyzing my emotions,
As I lose sense of reality.
Forgetting the pain, the sorrow, the regret.
