Oh So Hollow (Free verse) by etherealmaiden
I am gone without a reason
I am lost without a cause
The fear wells up inside me
And I hide behind my walls
The pain is overwhelming
From being left behind
Where is all the courage
I thought I had inside
My own silly feelings
Force me from myself
Keep me from the people
I should love the most
Once my heart was whole
I gave as best I could
Cracks began to form
My world fade away
What could I've done
Catch pieces as they fell
What good would it've done
To put them back once more
When every friends I see
Steals another beat
Or takes another tear
From this lonely fortress
That I call myself
Thus my walls stand high
Blockading all emotions
Inclusive of my own
Who would have known protection
Takes so much from home
Destroying fragile inners
To fortify the wall
Makes me oh so hollow
In every instance of my life
A single breaking heart
Incased in solid steel
Breaking from the pain
Which I cause myself
With the very effort
To keep you from tearing it apart
