Hollow

Hollow

A Poem by sheila.j
"

I'm scared to feel like this...

"

You came into my life

You filled me up

You made me whole

But...

At the end of the night

At the silence of the phone

At the ringing in my ears

I realized...

That all these choatic laughs

That all the bursting smiles

That all this pure happiness

It wasn't me...

So when you're gone

So when I'm alone

So much feeling is lost

And now...

I'm like a body with no soul

Like a home with no family

Like a heart with no beat

I am hollow...

There is beauty in the emotions you've portrayed. Truly, there is fear from this kind of emotions. Wonderful piece.

Such a well crafted piece! You conveyed to emotions you fear brilliantly, clearly you must be a strong individual and you fear being let down by someone. I know how you feel, I have the same fear. A very beautiful and well written piece. Great Job.

I like this form, the poem within a poem...we're all scared of having these feelings...the problem is that we'll never know when we've hit upon true love until we take those chances...nicely done^^
