As I wake up I have built a wall of numb
I go through the day hearing sad stories but the sadness will not break my wall
I see terrible things happen but the wall is still as strong as it was when it was built
I hear of terrible things happen but
I show no emotion because my wall of numb is strong
I think to myself who could break this wall?
Then as I get ready to lay my head down because I am aweary
I start to ponder and wander in my mind
Then I think of my past
Suddenly I feel something trickle down my cheek
I look in the mirror and my cheek is stained with a tear
I think to myself my wall of numb is falling down
I start to think more of the sadness and hurt and my cheeks become completely stained in tears
Then I decide it is time to rest
As I am asleep my wall of numb starts to build itself back
Then I wake up and I am numb again
