Someone hurt me, and writing about it was the only way to begin to heal.

The sound of loneliness is ringing so familiar.
As my heart is breaking before your eyes,
You do nothing but stare at my expressionless face,
Numb to you.
Numb to your touch,
Numb to your look,
Numb because the pain would be too much to bear.
Oh, but my heart cannot be numb for long.
I will being to break yet once again.
As I lay in the darkness and desperation of night.
My heart palpitates with ache,
And the tears begin to flow freely,
Staining my pillowcase with heartbreak.
Yes, the sound of loneliness is ringing so familiar.
