The Void
This void inside of me
Empties so quickly
Makes it hard to see
The me I used to be
I can't remember a time when I felt whole
Maybe it never existed
I remember being torn open and ripped apart
That kind of thing you never forget
I never managed to put myself back together right
Just pieces stuck together by despair and rage
Among other self destructive vices
This void inside of me
Empties so quickly
Makes it hard to see
The me I used to be
If I can't even remember me
Who is this person I used to be
(Gone and forgotten, smashed into pieces)
I feel so lost, never to be found
And with this depression, I'm forever bound
(Gone and forgotten, suffocated by time)
I guess this is who I'm supposed to be
I truly despise this version of me
Just pieces stuck together by despair and rage
Among other self destructive vices
(Gone and forgotten, I've lost my fucking mind)
This void inside of me

O the bleak void

Perfect capture here Miss A.
May light find You
Emotive Write too be sure
Pen On Poetess!!!

This one resonated with me ... great flow and cadence ... sprinkle of straight and slant rhyme ...
