Jackie. I dare you to jump inside this wicked mind of mine. It's one hell of a ride.

Empty

November 15, 2012
There's an unknown emptiness burning in my chest My heart and my brain are no longer linked I don't know why but maybe it's for the best My emotions turned off as fast as I blinked I'm clueless as to what's going on with me There's no reason for this sudden change This is not what I'm supposed to be Am I completely deranged? I used to love company of those nearby Now I can't stand the small talks and smiles Most nights, I only lie awake and cry Is this how it'll be for a while? I have no reason to feel this way No harm has been caused to me I would love to just sleep it all away Why can't this darkness leave me be? I fear nothing will fill the void in my heart I fear it'll always feel like this This isn't the end, but rather a start The start of a bittersweet bliss
