There are days I feel numb
I don\'t say a word like I\'m dumb
I just want to be left alone
As my feelings hover like a drone
I want to stay under my covers
I just don\'t want to be bothered
I need to sort out some things
The kind of things that emotions bring
It\'s just I feel at times tied down
Having to keeps my feeling bound
For others it may seem over the top
So I have to control or even stop
I always have to rein in how I feel
So those around me wouldn\'t repeal
At times it can be hard for me
That it makes me feel so very cranky
I have to clear things in my head
Before words can be said
Some feelings I have to keep to myself
Stacked away on the highest shelf
