screaming into void
trying to gain something
nothing happens;
the void stays
still searching for something
still feeling the emptiness

facing each day
recharging on my own
spreading positivity around
receiving emptiness
the void stays

painful to watch pain
painful to feel
painful to let go
I still move into the void
in hope of finding something

trying to be cold
trying to control emotions
trying to stay strong
I still wander in this void
searching for something

something feels like a distant home
walking endlessly towards it.

I have started to breathe freely
now, the something is me
I am still searching for myself
starting to decipher the void within me
NOW feels freeing 💜

And I do nothing as this void gets a hold of me,
this deep emptiness,
this deafening silence that screams.
I stare blankly into space,
trying to crack up the code,
looking at every particle,
breaking down every single atom.
There is nothing there.
Maybe I'm breaking down too.

dark and cold
memories black and old

none can save me
so why would you dare try?

can you not see
how I can never cry?

no blood dripped
when my soul was ripped

to shreds on the floor
as i watched in pain

There's nothing in this life
for a nomad in the shrapnel rain.

Never stare into it
For too long

You may hear the siren song
Of the endless pit

That you may find within
Your hollow carcass

The void of sin
The lonely darkness

That corrodes your being
From within to out

And steals your feeling
But will never shout
