The Hollow Child
I was the invisible child hollow
Fragile with a glass shell
Until you came by
Filled me with honey
And all the colors I would ever need.
Till I was content,
Till I was fulfilled.
But then,
Abruptly
At my happiest
At my fullest
You vanished.
In sadness, in grief, in mourning
I withered, gradually
The coldness and wintry grips
Shattered me
All the sweetness left me;
All the colors faded and seeped.
Now I am just shards trying to rebuild myself
Complete
Savoring what little trace of the honey that's still clinging on to me
So that when I am ready to be filled again
So that when you finally come around again
I could still be yours to keep.
