My Sad Attempt

The void is colorless It has no gravity Such weightlessness Yet I feel so heavy There is no feeling there There is no emotion at all But why would you ever care? Like you never hear my call In the void there is no sound Yet I hear you loud and clear All I want is to be found But you won't enter cause of fear Only I am in the void But no one seems to ever care Overlooked like an asteroid I stay living in this nightmare Once upon a time I lived in light But then I was lost, out of sight Like how carelessly one flies a kite Without much effort reaches that height Just as easy I slipped away No one asking me to stay Here I find there are no fears No crying, so no tears No drinking, so no beers No sound, no one hears No hope, it appears One day you will notice me And then ask me what is wrong And on that day you will see I lack somewhere to belong The only place I feel secure Is deep inside this place Forever on I will endure Vanish without a trace For here I find rest The lack of all Deep inside my chest My red brick wall The void is where one goes When there is no more hope So all my emotions froze No more need to cope With these feelings that hurt so much With all this pain I've had so long They hurt to the thought, not the touch So I wrote a poem and a song Describing how I feel inside Trying to explain what I mean How I want to run and hide How I just don't want to be seen
