this hollowness within me
i cannot explain what it is
like a cave in the woods
left without anyone
to inhabit the cold darkness
so miserable
for no real reason
i am not broken
i am not callous
i am an empty shallowness
awaiting for someone
to encomass me
i want so badly
to be held to flesh
to feel warm skin against mine
to feel life
for now i am dead
a hollow being
where a soul used to hide
without now
i am lonely
the cave gets colder at night
and rarely warms up in daytime
it seems it has gone forever
in these woods
without any visitors
the emptiness within me
cannot be touched
is afraid
of people. of world. of self.
how do you open something
that has been closed for so long
open the wound that has been out
yearning for the warmth again
and yet
so alone
and yet
so lost
to be needed, i fear
is the strongest feeling in the world
the streets could turn to fire
but my heart would remain ice
and how to melt this pain away
is there?
a powerful being.
and yet i am hopeless
so down alone and hollow
this wound will never be opened
the cave will always be empty
this life will always be useless
i am a cave. a wound. i am a being.
a lifeless skull on the roadside.
cars never pass me by.
the dust burns me.
at least i know i am still alive.
alive and fiery.
and yet...
