Numb

[Nadir]

I want the touch, the kiss, the caresses
I want the love, the warmth, the pulsating heat
But I turn your face away, avoid me
Please
Is it that difficult?
I hate the insinuating questions, the accusing glare,
the monosyllabic answers
I hate your click lick click
The sidewalks cringe as your tongue unwinds
I pull myself in
Further away
I turn to the hole, the cold
The silence screams, I turn deaf ears
I reel, I learnt I
Need the numb

interesting and smartly written. I like the phrase "The sidewalks cringe as your tongue unwinds".
