To me, this was a very personal piece. I agree with V that its about someone who has learnt to deal with pain.. but I think that person you write of is you Necro. Either that, or you do an awesome job of putting yourself into the mind of a 'ficticious' character.
But, from what Ive read from you on RB, I think either way you relate to this person intimately. Your not alone in what you think, who you are... some of the thoughts here are felt by many.

Right before I wake up, I'm still within sleep
Piling up those answers heap by heap
But they're intangible and simply whisper away
And the wind picks them up as I wake up to the day
And the day breaks, like so much shattered glass

I particularily loved this part, as I do the same thing every morning.. but I love the way you have written it. To so many the dawning of a new day is a positive thing, but not to you..

And the day breaks, like so much shattered glass

That line is just so evocative, says so much in so few words.

There is not much from a technical point I can say as its written well, the tempo and structure work well.. they never fell off anywhere for me, I found myself gliding through the piece to the very end. I was a little bedazzled by the ending though, The last two lines were beautiful, but just before that.. was a little mystifying. Personally, I just put it down to 'Necros eccentricity' as usually your writes are a little more twisted than this, which is one of your values as a writer. Taking a concept we can understand, and writing it in such a raw manner that it appears distorted, and yet the message remains clear. If that makes sense..

Heartfelt piece Necro. Nice write. Happy Holidays.
