Hollow Love

By Awesomeshiloh

 I remember when
  You made me fill whole
I use to know love
  But that feeling you stole
I would've died
  Done anything for you 
I don't know what happened
  I just know we're through

I don't know what to do 
  Or if I should go on
I use to have the strength
  But now I'm not that strong
I use to have a heart
  But now there's just a void
I was capable of love
  But now my soul's destroyed

Said that you'd be there
  Love me no matter what
But your words were fake
  Just somthing to be bought
Guess I should've known
  From your in securities
Not loving yourself
  You could never love me

Afraid to let me in 
  Scared you might get hurt
So it's my heart you crushed
  And trampled in the dirt
Killing me inside
  I no longer wish to hurt
But it's my soul you crushed
  And trampled in the dirt

    You seem to have a handle on the reality of the most common reason for failed relationships. One cannot love others truly without first loving themselves. Nice write, thanks for sharing this gem - XXOO Scholar
