Hollow

Dead
Dying

In the past
In the future

People said
They were crying

Two parts
Heart and head

'Til Death
To Die

Reminds oneself
Living worthwhile

One's last breath
Hearts still defy

To our distress
We are hollow

This is the undoing of our hemlines
Spilling our guts and straw
Exchanging words that mean nothing to no one no how

If this is what life is meant to be
I'd rather ablaze tell a starving people to eat, to live
Though they'd rather lie in their filth, waiting on someone to set them free
