Decaying Inside

There’s an emptiness inside me  
It’s echoing around  
 
I dig, I pry
Trying to find something inside  
 
My insides are like a desolate house
Empty and abandon  
All life left years ago  
 
The old lock on the door is broken  
So anyone can walk in  
 
People tread all over the floorboards of my heart
Leaving a trail of footsteps
 
They look at all the empty rooms
Examine the empty walls
Then leave the house and never return  
 
My insides have become foot trodden  
The floor boards are creaking  
There’s cracks in the walls  
The foundations are leaking  
 
My house is decaying  
The walls are trembling  
Soon my insides will crumble
