Hollow

I find it hard to feel anything.

The very being of my soul feels empty.

I’m sad that I’m all alone;

I feel hollow,

like I’ve been eaten up in the inside,

as if I’m not whole.

I’m so sad, so tired of being alone,

so tired of people miss-believing of who i am.

I even have forgotten myself.

I do not remember what it feels like to actually care for someone.

No one cares,

there is no one out there for me....

I’m alone,

and I’m gong to stay on my own,

no one could love me,

I don’t exist.

i won’t give into the darkness,

that threatens to swallow me whole.

I will be my own hero,

I will conquer fear,

conquer hope,

and live my life to the fullest,

even if there is no gold or medal to win.

There will always be my happy place,

where my whole heart will be,

to stay.
