Emptiness

I live each passing day,
Pretending nothing's wrong,
But inside I hold an emptiness,
That I carry all along.

Everyday I fake another laugh,
Although I hold hollowness inside,
But there I am with a grin on my face,
When all I want is to cry.

No body understands how I feel,
Because I realize I'm all alone,
Although everyone is by my side,
I feel I don't belong.

Sometimes I find no meaning,
To this empty hollow life,
Although I try to do my best,
To stay strong with every strife.

But the more I live I feel,
Like I want to hold the knife,
I no longer want to suffer,
I no longer want to cry.
