Lost

Every step I take
Echoes through the
Loneliness eating
Away at me.
Like acid,
It burns and
Devours my inside
Until I am
Empty,
Hollow,
Dead.

I dont cry anymore,
There is no one to
Dry the tears.
I dont try anymore,
There is no one
Left thats worth
The trouble.
I dont care anymore,
Because I end up
Hurting and
Wishing and
Missing you.
