Empty
August 16, 2011
It is empty
A gash, a void
That should be elsewhere
That should not be here
It is a hole, a
Gap, a
Fissure
In my heart.
I am grotesque, a
Parody
Of humanity
For what is humanity without passion?
Cold thoughts,
Cold memories of
Emotion
Are all that is left
In its dark
In its abyss
In its emptiness
It sucked my heart in, and
Replaced it.
It is empty
And alone, at night,
I know it
And would weep
If only I had a heart,
And tears to
Fill it, for
I know now that I do not.
