Still Hollow Poem by jaimie campbell

I lay awake missing your touch, the touch that shadows the emptiness. It makes me feel worse, I'm so hollow when you say I fill you completely.

I try so hard to open up to you, but the fear you'll be like him is much to great. This fear is what I know you will tire of and the cause of your leaving.

And when your gone, I will pretent you are still here. Holding me close dispite the fear.

In my dreams you show me I was wrong. Oh so wrong as on my finger you place the ring that forces away my worry.

Until I wake and my hand is as light as ever, unlike the fear that is still pushing harder over my heart. Holding the door to let you in closed and the space still oh so hollow...
