Numb

Crawling through the veins of love,
slowly it searches, pricking, biting.
is it love, i wonder now,
or a dream not worth dreaming?
whisper it into my ear,
let it overtake my senses.
carefully the pain you've caused,
it spreads furthur to my soul.
deeper, deeper, i can feel it sucking me dry,
why are you doing this?
you told me you loved me,
once, twice... many times.
was it all lies?
was the silk spinning quickly from your tongue faster than the truth?
you've hurt me so many times, i'm numb.
