I'd rather not hear my own talk of hallowness echo back at, around, and inside me, but worse is to witness it hurting you - 'It'? Not the talk, but the topic. And 'worse'? This dejection can strip my self-worth - but I'm used to the lack of attention.
So yes, when my mind feels ejected from my body, when I need to sleep or hide some other way from what's inside me, I vacate myself in ways that may desert you for a while.
I'll just ask that you be patient. I'm sorry and I'm not; you deserve a whole, and I've got to not be a hole
I've been thinking about R&D; - the latter for you, the former for me (vice versa, or neither ...or both)
...alternatively the last line can be read "not be AN a hole"
