fire

i touch the fire and it freezes me
i look into it and its black
why cant i feel

my skin should crack and peel
i want the fire back

every thing i lack
comes back to haunt me

no compassion
no life, no lust

why cant i feel

i should feel this treacherous heart beating

but i dont

why cant i feel?

wow...thats amazing

especially because you sometimes feel numb, and lost from just doing the same thing over and over again

i understand where you are coming from i have been there and i still feel numb like i can't feel anything from time time

so your not alone...
and if you ever need anybody to talk to i feel free to come to me when ever you like if you need a friend to be there for you...

very good poem.
refreshingly so.

I enjoyed the rhymn scheme
you schemer you.

you requested a comment.

"every thing" would probably be better as "everything", one word. and maybe more punctuation to let the reader know when to slow down and pause except your line breaks are excellent, giving us the poem in logical portions.
