Hollow Paper

Writing my poetry on this lifeless page.

The only retreat for my inner desire,

When reality descends upon me.



These words are the tears I cry:

They are endless and pristine.

For I long untouchable dream.



So another page is written at sundown,

While I wait for the full moon to rise;

Which reflects my lonely soul.



Beauty so divine, is out of this world

And poets live amongst the living dead

With their heart exposed on a hollow paper.



At least I can find comfort in these words

And lay my restless soul to sleep;

For my will is written on this lifeless page.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

It's about how you sometimes like to dream of things that you just know you will never be able to get. And all you can do is write about it. And question yourself, why you for once just can't get what you desire.
