Help me, someone help.
I'm drowning in my thoughts,
Crushed by my indifference to life,
Suffocated by my lack of feeling.

My thoughts are raging
In a waging war of heart.
Why don't I feel?
Someone help, please.
Hurt me.

I would rather feel pain than nothing at all.

I think every teen feels this from time to time. I just hope they realize they aren't the only ones. "It is both a blessing, and a curse, to feel everything so deeply." -unknown.
