Hollow Souls Wish For Love (acrostic)
Hearing sharp words
Of those around me
Love is absent
Lust omnipresent
Out of sympathy
We become hollow beings
Sweet lies fill the ears
Only tasting of resentment
Under strain
Loveless we remain,
Simply self consumed
We became so material
Imperialistic
So agonizingly emotionless
Hollow souls cherish possessions
For possessions take the place of emotions
Only lavish fabrics or precious metals
Really fill the void in people anymore
Love, outweighs possessions
Outweighs them by a thousand
Vicariousness the victor,
Endlessly
