Empty Within Poem by Nitya Pillai

Life so uncertain
Life so true
my life is mine
but who are you?
You get to know me
and enter my life
you spread joys all around me
and cut my heart with a knife.
You love me so much
like no one ever did before
you get me to love you
and then walk out of my door.
Your smile still haunts me at every sight
your voice still echoes in the night
your hands so tender
touch mine and say
'If you love me, lets run away'
I start to run
and soon realise
my shadow and me
watching the sunrise...
Your fragrance still bestows on me all day
your breath still touches me to say
'I loved you, I love you, I'll always love you this way
If you love me, lets run away'
I run again, and
fall down this time
look down and realize
my heart is not mine...
You've taken my heart
you've taken my soul
you've taken my mind
and left me all alone.
If you've loved me so much
just let me be me
but you're also helpless
you no longer know me
you no longer feel me
you no longer sense me
you no longer love me...
So i'm all alone again
with my life only mine
and no one to enter again
since my heart is not mine...
