Emptiness
An angel tortured by her own sins,
Surrounded by her remorse,
Living a vague vision,
In an empty world,
A little girl,
Prevented from contentment,
With an immortal tear slithering down her face,
In an empty world,
Living in a tragedy,
With scars covering our faces,
Mirrors reflecting dimness,
In an empty world,
Silence of joy,
While the sound of our tears echo,
No sympathy,
In an empty world,
Our dreams are abandoned,
While nightmares are welcomed,
Desolated thoughts
In an empty world,
People run in circles,
And end where they have begun,
Their eyes disguised with blindness,
In an empty world,
Ice surrounded by fences of fire,
Deep inside eyes we find lost desires,
A place for vagabonds,
In an empty world,
Adding years to life,
But never life to years,
Living in emptiness,
Drowning in our tears,
Just to drown our sorrow,
In an empty world...
