One day
the person you love
will say to you,
“I feel empty.”
And they won’t know why.
You’ll desperately plead with
the people you have looked to
for answers to the most difficult questions in the past,
and when the answer doesn’t come
you will ask yourself
again and again,
and you won’t know why.
Nobody will know why.

And they won’t know why.
You’ll desperately plead with

for answers to the most difficult questions in the past,
and when the answer doesn’t come
you will ask yourself
again and again,
and you won’t know why.
Nobody will know why.
