The Hollow Poem by Laurie Crilly

There is a hollow
it lies within my heart
the impression within made by you
molded by your presence
forever changed
how did it happen in so brief a time?

There is an emptiness
I feel it everyday
as my mind recounts the hours
spent in your company
beautiful memories
that will forever bring me pain.

There is a yearning
I had never felt before
as I ache to feel your body close
memories not enough
to fill the void
as my passion slowly dies.
