Numb

A poem about a girl who has lost the will to live but keeps fighting

Smoke pours from her mouth

But she can't feel the chill

Her heart is in pain

And she's losing the will

Her hand breaks the web

Silk on her skin

Wraps round her fingers

Deathlike, so thin

She lights a candle

Grows black with her blood

She let's her skin burn

Feels the heat that she should

The fire creeps through her

Eats her inside out

And she stays so silent

Though her mouth begs to shout

The webs keep growing

Creep up her arm

Suffocate her senses

Yet cause her no harm

Her hearts snapped in two now

She's started to cry

One last wish

Is to just let her die

She just wants to die
