An Empty Shell (Alt) Poem by James Callos Jordan

Look into her eyes,
As she schemes on emptiness;
Could you fill it with love?
Could you fill it with hate?

Melancholy; lost in a dark void,
As her presence bring awe;
Could you merge with her?
Could you break her apart?

Sense her lust for identity,
As she search for that bit;
Could you accept her?
Could you understand her?

Loneliness; screaming it all out,
As her inner sanctum crumbles;
Could you help her?
Could you define her?
