Empty

Folder: 
2004

vaporize the air so it is clean

so that maybe for once I could breathe

flood the tears make a sea pull me in

so that I can finally learn how to swim

shoot me to the stars, to the milky way

so I can taste in my mouth the light of day

let the sun's rays reach out and touch me

and most of all let me know that you love me



chorus

I don't have to be empty

cause your love can fill me

I don't have to be dead inside

cause your always by my side

and I love you and you love me

and your love will set me free

and maybe someday I won't be empty



lace my heart with lots of color with strings

tune my voice to praise you as it softly sings

fly me to the clouds up way up in the sky above

paint me a picture of your unconditional love

caress me with your gentle touch so tenderly

baptize me in the waters of a fountain so holy

whisper to me your words of comfort and truth

for I am nothing at all on this earth without you

chorus



when emptiness takes over my soul

you are always there to make me whole

when crying is all that I can do

all I have to do is turn to you

when I am afraid trapped in fear

I always look and your right here

you bring me to life make me real

and then my heart will mend and heal

chorus

Hey, I love it! Do you think once we get our band up and running we could sing it? I think it would be a hit. It's absolutely beautiful. See you in Psych!

Good poem. I like it. Emptiness is not so fun.
I know how you feel. I feel the same way at home.
