    I have fought so long
    against the numbness,
    the negative coping.
    Yet I long for its return.
    Bustling anxiety steals
    sleep from behind my eyes.
    The apathetic soul calls for release
    to fight the tightened chest.
    Past are the days
    when flesh called for knives
    to remember what feeling
    felt like.
    Which demon do I allow dominion?
    I am not strong enough to fight both.
    The bite of a blade for the frosted mind
    or electric shocks to a frantic heart?
