Hollow (3/5/13)

Oh how I would like to survive
On this plane of living, with you by my side
Not just for the length of a mortal coil
But for eternity everlasting

But I feel filled with doubt and fear
Exhaustion fills my every pore
I'd like to lay down my head at once
And fall asleep silently crying

To release some of the pressure that is building
Before something terrible can happen to us all
Being this tired hurts, inside my mind and soul
And throughout my muscles and bones

How I wish to feel the fire
That once consumed my very veins
The flames of passion, of creation
A muse that forged the words I laid down

Yet still I merely just exist
In a body that's not really living
While it's filled with nothing but distraught
Never feeling anything it yearns for

Is this my curse, to carry for always?
For the wrongs I have dealt long ago
For the feelings and lives I had hurt
There is no spell to remedy this ache

But still I shall reverently hope
To the bottom of everything that I am
That someday I'll be myself again
And not just a shell of what I used to be
