We won't feel anymore
Feelings make us weak
They let us lie in bed for hours
late at night
crying, thinking about why we weren't good enough
Again
Why they didn't want us
Why no one wants us
So we'll just stop the feelings
It's not easy
They come to the surface every now and then
Quite often actually
Especially late at night
Because if you feel the same thing over and over again
You can't get rid of it that easily
But we just take a deep breath, in and out
And tell ourselves that
We won't feel anymore
And it works
The crying late at night stopped
Because we ignore our thoughts
The demon inside us who tells us we'll never be good enough stopped
Because we ignore him
The feeling of being a failure stopped
Because we ignore our feelings
And eventually, we don't have to tell ourselves anymore that
We won't feel anymore
Because
We don't feel anymore
But when nobody notices
When we're all alone
late at night
The demon comes back
And we feel like a failure
And we cry
