Abandoning Feelings Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Falling in depths of despair, nothing to catch me,
no one who cares.

Leaving all feelings and emotions, abandoning them
for a complete numbness to take me away.

No longer wanting to feel anything, they're always
hurting and carving their scars into my being.

A lost soul, taking self into the isolation of an-
other dimension.

There at least I cannot be harmed or hurt by
another's loathing and hatred.
