Empty

I have no empathy, 
Rip me open, and inside you will see,
the reason I despise 
the emptiness ,the lies,
the tears I can’t cry 
the look of isolation 
deep set in my eyes.

I’m praying one day to feel something,
Because everyday I’m numb,and I’m choking,
Left to drown in a sea of nothing,
Sick to death of all this  suffering. 

My hearts exhausted by destruction,
With a mind lacking any emotion,
My whole body has no compassion ,
Or room for any affection.
