[hometext] => * I wrote this a while ago and neglected to post it, but now I will abuse your poetic minds with my ramblings. I am in a bad mood... a sad mood and this describes my present frame of mind. Read it if u want... if u dont want to I'm sure you wont be losing anything. It talks about emptiness hence the title.*
[bodytext] => I feel that my heart
Is small and dirty It can't beat fast enough To give enough air Maybe that is why, it seems The emptiness always lingers Like a sniper, eying its prey I feel like a wartorn city Threatening to combust I'm searching for sustenance, But nothing satisfies for long I feel so unworthy, so lost The emptiness has caught me again Its tentacles always find me Leaving me dry and broken Like some dead leaf Which will never live again Am I that leaf? Which fell early I feel so empty and weary Why can nothing sustain? I just want to Throw myself off a cliff And be dashed upon some rocks Then my emptiness will be gone And I can be freed from myself Oh, what a mercy! How tempting it is These tears they never fall Just threaten to Like now Why? is my only question My only scream I don't get an answer back Lord you've left me here So I will continue my search It says you are my Father But I don't see you anywhere In the midst of everything So sadly, I will continue on A lost and bitter Child of yours...
