Loneliness
Carve out my arms and chest
The aching loss my forearms face
Hands lifted up to a god
Who stole the soul of an empty case
Shine a flashlight through the gap
Or into a hollow statue chest
Porcelain delicate echoing sounds
Pulled out and up to eternal rest
Hear me crying in the night
For I have lost my soul
Fill my arms and chest again
Please, just make me whole
