An empty soul floating atop a sea of bleeding hearts
Sinks when the rain turns to a flood
Drowning in the pain of others
Hiding amongst their misery
Filling like a sponge,
with the decaying love of strangers
Overjoyed to belong,
despite the lingering nothingness
Joy evaporates the liquid anguish, however slowly
Time brings solitude
Returning to the surface even emptier than before
