The sound of Emptiness


Let me tell you about the sound of emptiness The sickness, the cold of hate and the smell of bleakness You're in a crowded place but you cannot be seen Everybody you see around you is bad and mean .. Your body is heavy, slow and everything else is fast You don't belong to the present and you hate the past Thoughts in your brain don't make any sense and you're about to blast Sadness and anger are your friends but the smile doesn't last .. You cry out loud maybe someone will hear your suffering But every helping hand, feels like suffocating Your weak heart is losing its rhythm and can't hold the beat You cannot eat or sleep and cannot stand on your feet .. Did you come here by error and are you the mistake? It gives you a headache while your body shake All you want to do is disappear from this dark sphere You're waiting for the door to open to end your fear.. You close your eyes with their falling tears to shut the light In a big hope to feel or see something bright But each voyage is pulling you deeper into the darkness I'm wondering if your name is called loneliness..
