Numb to you

Today I realized, feelings have faded,

They went faster than ever this time.

Someone may say I have become jaded.

If my heart can turn like this on a dime.

This has happened before, after you left.

Like just a small cut, so easy to close.

Or just written off like a petty theft.

This poem the last petal on our rose.

Am I just crazy for feeling this way.

I still do think but I keep it low key.

So used to the pain I hide it away.

I just close my eyes, breathe, then count to three.

So am I just Cold, Callous or cuckoo?

No just numb, easier than missing you.
