An empty heart

by Stephanie   Nov 19, 2007


Dark nights, cloudy skies, snowy sidewalks, harsh winds
A deep cold not only swarming the town but penetrating my heart
No longer am I the happy-go-lucky girl I used to be
But am now a girl with empty eyes, a heart full of holes
No desire to succeed cuz I've already failed so many times
What's the point of trying again--only to fail

Lonely shadows try to fill my empty heart but nothing
Will ever replace what left. Nothing can compare to what it used to have
This broken heart can no longer endure these trials
As the wind screams it blows out what little spark of hope is left
In this empty soul that consumes my body and character
Lost behind mistakes that can never be taken back

I cut a little deeper to make sure I'm even still alive
Not convinced until I feel that faint sting and see the blood collect
This body consumed by someone I no longer recognize
How to escape from this lost person and break free I can't figure out
Forever will I be trapped like this? I pray to god I won't be
Stuck in a world of darkness and sin, can't find my way out
Will I forever be entangled in this evil trap of depression?
