ok so i lied

i don't always write when i feel
like i said
a lot of the best poems
were written when i was numb
numb as fuck
i guess numb is a feeling
so it's not a total lie
is it possible to not feel at all?
because when it comes down to it
youre always feeling
whether it's indifference
or annoyance
or just
whatever
so i guess i'm always writing when i'm feeling
because i'm always feeling
numbness only occurs
in death
and even then
maybe you feel?
how would you know?

  1. i think being numb.
    sucks more than being sad or anything like that?
    because with sadness, it is almost comforting in some strange way.
    and you know, there are others that feel this too.
    but being numb, you just feel so dissociated from anything.
    and like your not really there.
