Giving love to a hollow heart

Is like dropping a coin into a well

In hopes of making a wish

But never hearing it hit the bottom

No splash in the water

No thud against bricks

Just a feeling of dread

As seconds tick by with no resolution

Your wish fades, incomplete

And you're held in suspense

Waiting for the end.
