Hollow Heart

Folder: 
Soul Poetry

Do you feel empty

and torn all apart?

When you cry, does it echo

through a hollow heart?



When surrounderd by others

do you feel alone?

In a crowd of friends

are they all unknown?



When you look in the mirror

do you know who's there?

Or is it just a stranger

who looks back and stares?



If you look to the future

does it ever look bright?

When you go to sleep

do you dream at night?



If you cut yourself

do you slowly bleed?

When you cry for help

does anyone hear your plead?



Was your answer, 'Yes'

to all of these questions?

If so, then your hollow heart

needs careful attentions.
