In the hushed halls of stress and strain
Where lessons echo, minds in chains
I bear a weight, an empty weight
A longing for a home, a mate
For in this place of books and rules,
I'm lost within, like endless pools,
An empty feeling, cold and wide
No haven where my heart can hide.
I paint scenarios in my mind,
To fill the void, the ties that bind
A make-believe, a world of dreams,
Where love and laughter are what it seems.
I craft a friend, a confidant
To share my woes, my secret want,
In whispered tales of hope and grace,
I find a smile to fill the space.
Yet deep within, I know it's fake,
A fragile dream, my heart does ache,
For in this world of make-believe,
The emptiness, it won't deceive.
But in this school of stress and strife,
I'll find the strength to change my life,
To seek the bonds that will make me whole
And turn these fables into a heartfelt role.
For in the quest for what is real,
A friend, a home, a love to feel,
I'll rise above the empty void,
With courage, hope, my heart's employed.
