Emotional Anastasia

Warm hugs and yet I feel soaked
Nothing thrills
Like I'm sleeping; never awoke

Remorsing about my past or always too alive
What am I afraid of
The people? Or me being naïve?

I smile, I laugh, I rejoice with every affection
But wont' let you in
I have a fort of protection

An eccentric feeling no song can describe
Tricking myself talk, feels like a crime
A bribe

Its cats raddle and rubix cubes
Jumbled and tightly packed
Trust me solving the confusion
Only leads to more fret

Thus I soak in this numbness
Of being alive and not
Wrap it around my heart, give it my best shot

Makes me heartless
Confused to feelings I once knew
Values no opinions
Okay! Barely and rarely a few

It bars, confronts and draws a fine line
Between what is real and fake
What is temporary and not mine

It isn't sad or gloomy- take me by no surprise
It feels like summer breeze
With hopes of a new sunrise
