An empty hollow
Inside my chest
Sends a signal
To my mind
Help me
Fill me
Sooth me
Need me
Want me
Hold me
In my mind
The needing grows
It consumes
It drains
A hollow in my mind
An empty hollow
Inside my mind
Takes all the energy
All my strength
Consumed
To fill a hollow
All my strength
Is drained away
So I feel so weak
To all else
I seek to do
To be
To feel
It sends a signal
To my body
That I am tired
That I am weak
That I am struggling
That I need help
That I can't do this along
That I am alone
An empty hollow
Feels so along
And in this deep
And in this pit
It makes me need
Desperately crave
The thing that upon reflect
I can never quite achieve
A pain that hurts deep
This loneliness
Of 'what is wrong with me?'
But I cannot wallow
Or I will be trapped in
In this hollow
And I will climb out
Of this deep
With a strength
I feel born
To repeat
And bury this question
It's pains
it's self pity
Deep in my chest
Held deep in my heart
So my mind can forget
This hurt
An empty hollow
Inside my chest ...
