the emptiness hurts
like a blade turning deep
dull aching, tearing me apart

silence is overwhelming
lack of words hurting more than a million
deafening emptiness

painful waves lap at my heart
reminding me of its broken pieces
wondering if it will ever heal enough to give it away

darkness all around -- closing in cutting me off
no one to hear my scream
no one to wipe my tears
no one no one NOT ONE

here i sit, soulless and alone
tears unending
why do i feel so worthless, why is what i do not enough
enough for me to feel like its ok
