I’m numb
I’m tired
Pain doesn’t matter to me anymore
People judging me
I don’t care
It used to hurt so much
but now it doesn’t
I still want to cry all the time
That won’t ever change
But the feeling when I’m outside of my bedroom
They have gone
I don’t know what’s worse
Being immune to all the negativity
Or feeling way too much
I thought I was okay
Why does it have to be this way?
I want to know how it feels to be liked and hated
Not knowing either of them
I’m numb
It doesn’t hurt
It doesn’t feel good either
I feel nothing
Not a single bit of anything
Until I’m locked inside my bedroom
Alone
Free from everything except myself
I am my own enemy
I hate who I have become
Can’t hide my arms since people know to look there
So showing how I feel some place else
Done it twice so far
I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to leave a mark
Sometimes I wish that I let go of that branch
Other times I don’t
I’m numb
I’m tired
I’m sorry
I’m hurting
I’m in a state of constant destruction
Hopefully no one I care about sees this
Unless I show them
But that would be a mistake

Well-composed and quite relatable. Sometimes I think feelings just get too much and you have to cut them out.
