Empty

A portrayal of my downward spiral after loss.

Lifeless eyes starring back at me from the mirror.
No longer do I see the light inside that shone so bright.
The battle is over I have lost this fight.
That which I have feared has came to pass.
Heartbreak and pain slowly eating at me like a cancer.
Have finally claimed the life within my life.
Never again shall my heart know the feeling of love.
Happiness will become as a stranger I do not know.
The beauty of this world will fade through my eyes.
Music will cease to exist and become silent.
Never again shall  I feel anything but pain.
The rest of my life I am doomed to walk in darkness.
For on this day I lost all  I was, am, or would have been.
My soul has died and I am no more than an empty shell.

[My Broken Heart]

Wow.....Thank You....Thank You Bunches..... Comments like yours help me more than you could imagine. Through my entire life music has been my passion. To listen, sing, and write music. The last few years I lost interest in almost everything locking myself away from the world. Falling farther into a dark place I did not want to go to. I could only think of one way to hopefully bring myself back to myself, my passion for writing. For me to hear comments like yours it brings tears to my eyes and reassures me that I can and will find what I once believed to be lost forever, "Myself" So from all that I have left of a heart, I Thank You.
