Into the Deep Place of My Heart
Into the deep empty place
That I call my heart.
It pounds so slowly
And it yearns for love.
My hearts call out for love
Goes unanswered .
My heart stops for a brief second…
To see if anyone
Will put their hands upon my heart,
To continue the beat of my heart
But no one comes.
Nobody reaches out to me
Nobody screams and shout for me.
I sit here desperately
And I cry, I cry tears of pain
But nobody comes to wipe those tears away.
I sit in a puddle of blood
With a knife in between my heart
Because I tried to pour out
The last few drops of love
That I had inside of me.
If you walked into my heart
And you banged against the walls,
Then you would hear total silence
Because my heart is hollow
Because my heart is broken
And because the love is lost.
