Paint Me Colorful

Take a marker or maybe a pen 
    try to fill me in
     Paint me colorful make me identical, normal
    It's seems no matter what I will always have that piece missing
    I try the best I can but still no one can shade it in
    or even leave a fraction done
     all they leave is dents  
      a deep hole that grows and grows
        I slip in between it's cracks
          sometimes there's no way back
         I fear slipping so deep that a Portal will transport me
              there's no getting off when I leave 
               so it would be my final departure 
             it would take years and years to pull me out
               the hole I created to suck up my pain like a Vacuume
                it works really accurately
                    pain seems to run right through me
                        I can almost pretend it isn't happening... 
                         Ignorance only makes it worst
                             but tell me what can I do
                                  Take a marker or maybe a pen
                                   try to fill the void i'm missing
                                           color me Happy. 
                                                   paint me colorful.
