Empty

And when I learned that you died How can I describe The empty Empty Empty You were my boxer in the night Sparred with you About every aspect of Life My secret tonic Made everything Feel alright Got me through it all All the frustrations Disappointments of Life And when I learned that you died How can I describe The empty Empty Empty We called each other friend Even when Our bodies came together That single Lunatic Moment That single Lunatic Time And it felt so Full You made me feel Full How can I describe The full Full Full My life was full When you laughed It felt so full even When you Cried The times I was mean And my body left Your body After That single Lunatic Time And so we pretended We were just Friends In the end We pretended Then And now you’re Gone And I can barely speak Or write I can barely write A Single Meaningful Poetic Word And there’s a quiet room In my mind Where your laughter Once Played My innocent child Woman Gone Away How can I describe The Empty Empty Empty How can I describe The empty Empty Empty How can I describe The Way I Feel?
