Hollow Man

Hollow of eyes,
these shut eyelids
cast out the light.

The eyes of this soulless man
fused shut years ago to the light.
Light that would melt the ice within.

Hollow of a voice,
these shut lips
hide my cold thoughts.

The voice of this empty man
choked mute long ago.
Mute to expressions of empathy.

Hollow of warmth,
this icy skin
encasing a body void of a soul.
