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
