sometimes

I suppose I am happy.

like when I am with my friends

throwing my head back and covering my mouth

as I shake with laughter

at a joke someone just made

but then days turn to night

and my carefree grin turns into an unexplainable sadness,

etched on my face like a tattoo.

and I lay in bed,

thinking about all the things I wish I could say--

all the things im too afraid to admit,

even with only pen and paper and mind.

it's nights like these when I realize:

I am many things.

I am happy and sad,

outgoing and shy,

rambunctious and quiet

but mostly,

I am just empty
