I am a girl With eyes very dark And I am a girl With the ghost of a heart It haunts my chest's void With the pain of no pain A feeling of numbness Poisons every vein Tears are no more And neither a smile With a soul much too torn And an absence so vile My heart has escaped The cage it permeated It was, perhaps, instinct After being defeated Sympathy, depression Ran off with it too Merriment, aggression Runaway they pursued Gone are my emotions That were, at a time, everything Careless my devotions And the inclination to cling Detached from all relations All apart from one Immune to shots at separation He stays my morning sun

Absence
I am a girl With eyes very dark And I am a girl With the ghost of a heart It haunts my chest's void With the pain of no pain A feeling of numbness Poisons every vein Tears are no more And neither a smile With a soul much too torn And an absence so vile My heart has escaped The cage it permeated It was, perhaps, instinct After being defeated Sympathy, depression Ran off with it too Merriment, aggression Runaway they pursued Gone are my emotions That were, at a time, everything Careless my devotions And the inclination to cling Detached from all relations All apart from one Immune to shots at separation He stays my morning sun
