Hollow Poem by Ryan Joseph Holder

Hollow



My eyes shower down
The remains of my soul
My heart's been devoured
I'm left on my own
My body is freezing
Yet, it's a hundred degrees
I could care less
What happens to me
I can't stop shaking
My essence is gone
Something about this
Feels so very wrong
I'm compleatly alone
And no one can help me
Nothing else matters
I feel so damn empty
Everyone says
They understand
But they're not alone
In some foriegn land
I left my everything
Back in the states
And now all I can do
Is hear my heart break
I miss my life
I miss my friends
I really wish
It didn't end
I can't even explain
How sad I feel
The sorrow in me
Is simply unreal
My heart is still beating
Just barely, and yet
I feel like a puppet...
A marionette...
I cannot believe
My life's in the dirt
If it's what I wanted
Then why does it hurt
Why did I leave
Why did I do it
Now all I am
Is muscles and fluids
I'm a capsule, a void,
A vessel that's empty!
I'm nothing. I'm no one...
Just go on without me..

I love the last two lines of the poem. It completely sums up how you feel overall. I definately know how you feel when it comes to people thinking that they understand but have no idea at all. This is a really good poem i really like it Good Job -Tyease
