-void-

By thelostmessenger

I am hollow.
Empty in every sense.
I feel no pain, nor love.
The razor that severs my skin
Emits no pain or feeling whatsoever.
Desperate embraces from a frail lover
Cry for me to feel…
But there is nothing.
I can hear my thoughts echo
In the depths of my mind,
Void and vacant.
Blank pages mock me,
For I am empty as well.
These pages will be filled…
However, I am bare evermore.
There is nothing for me to feel
That I have not already experienced.
There is no promise in life.
I have lived, loved, and thus shall die.
I have felt an eternity of feelings,
And now, I remain…
Numb.

    Slathered in despair and as fluid as a swan song. A lovely dark piece(of your heart).
