Poems and Heartache

Forty one

Sometimes I feel empty
Like I don't matter
Like my life is worthless

I feel more empty the more I realize that I can be forgotten

I feel more empty when I smile, but I want to cry

I feel more empty when I block out my emotions

I feel like if I get any more empty I'm going to make my soul disappear and I'll stop feeling feelings over all

I hate feeling empty
I use to hurt myself to remind myself that I can hurt
That I have the ability to feel things

I'm tired of feeling empty
I am so glad I have a friend who can make me feel whole
