maybe if i wasn't so empty i would've been in a relationship by now
maybe if i wasn't so empty i wouldn't have to sketch any more sad quotes into my wall hoping they're going to make me feel something or maybe i wouldn't have to persuade people that i'm happy today or i'm excited today and maybe i would've been a very emotive person. my walls don't seem to look any brighter this morning and it's most likely because i don't seem any brighter. maybe if i wasn't so empty colour would be a vivid exploration instead of just. colour. and maybe moments that i was supposed to feel the emotion in the air i would've been able to grasp it and call it my own instead of staring it dead in the eyes and wondering why it wasn't there.
maybe if i wasn't so goddamn empty i would've been able to feel what it's like to be fulfilled.
maybe.
