Numb Love

Sensation of hearts colliding Numbed beneath my skin The dove, again gently gliding Sunset skies reflect off my heart of tin Numb love will get me nowhere Say it again, I tell myself Jump into the water if you dare But I’m numb to its current Not a tether do I have in this galaxy Not a wheel on this ship Floating into nowhere But I know that dove is out there somewhere Flying silently- invisible behind the clouds I wish it would fly me to better refuge I wish I would learn to let go of this safe land But I am bound to this world of blank walls Stuck in a cage, where nothing is heavier than everything Please release me from this burden! I need not all this weight of my heart! I am sick of feeling so lost and uncertain But I still stand far from you apart The only thing in my way is not mountains nor seas But it is only a person- in fact only me Not the dove in sight, Not a release from this burden I’m still bound from any flight Still lost and uncertain Oh sweet numb love, I couldn’t jump into the water if I dared
