Hollow

Hollow inside, there's nothing there.
I'm so empty, but nobody cares.
I can actually feel the void within me.
But I cover it up so they can't see.

I cut to make myself feel.
Just so I can confirm I'm real.
I watch as the blood flows out.
Temporarily removing my doubt.

But now that I know I'm here.
I start to cry stopless tears.
Because I'm faced with the sorrow.
Of knowing I'm alive and Hollow.

 

Life

Life is so unfair.
You give, and give, and give
And it just keeps taking and taking.
Never giving back, because it is a greedy existence.
It takes until you have nothing.
Until you’re a soulless, empty shell of what once was human.
In the end, scarred by the takings of life,
You end it; the inhumane, unjust, corrupt tyranny of life.
Without a soul, you merely fade away into the nothing of death.
   
     

Wintery Abyss

Winter, my dark, cold, unforgiving abyss.
Stuck forever in perpetual winter, unable to heal.
Never will I see the healing warmth of spring.
Every fiber of my being torn to pieces.
The pieces snow back down in a crimson torrent
Of pain and cruelty for trying to escape.
I can’t get out, time stands still,
But if I left, the snow would stop falling
And spring and peace could return once again.
But every time I try it only creates another bloody blizzard,
Causing others pain, but more to myself.
I give in, winter took over and won.
I’ve brought on the next Ice Age, I’m sorry…

   

Everything

The crimson flows freely.
Ijust can't see.
How anyone could like me.
Or what i could be.

I am so sick and tired.
Of feeling so expired.
Like i just got fired.
From what i had desired.

Everything has gone awry.
It makes me want to cry.
It makes me want to say goodbye.
It makes me want to die.
Since everything has gone awry.

Nothing is right anymore.
It's nothing like before.
But even that's no more.
Just a past of forgotten lore.

I'm so tired of this world of hate.
Bound to it by a cruel twist of fate.
But as of late.
I only think of death in my pate.

Everything has gone awry.
It makes me want to cry.
It makes me want to say goodbye.
It makes me want to die.
Since everything has gone awry.

My joy has been taken away.
I can no longer stay.
Somewhere where I only get in the way.
No longer shall I see the light of day.

After this final slice of the wrist.
There shall be no more of this.
After I feel death's sweet kiss.
I will finally have my bliss.

Everything has gone awry.
It makes me want to cry.
It makes me want to say goodbye.
It makes me want to die.
Since everything has gone awry.

Here comes the blood.
Only this time it's in a flood.
I am now finally done.
With this world of fun.

No more trying.
No more lying.
No more crying.
For this time I'm dying.

Everything had gone awry.
It made me cry.
It made me goodbye.
It made me die.
Because everything went awry.

  

Nothingness

All this pain i feel inside
What's to gain trying to hide
These feelings i feel will never heal.
It destroys me bit by bit.
Until i can't take anymore of it.
What's left is gone.
And what's gone is left.
'cause all i have is Nothingness
