HOLLOW

the emptiness of a full house

where walls whisper

and silence screams loud

i don't wanna listen

but i can't shut the sounds

i don't wanna witness

what goes on behind closed doors

i don't wanna be here

i can't handle it anymore

she talks and cries for hours

he doesn't say a word

loneliness tastes sour

on the tip of my tongue

the bitterness of knowing

i'm in the crossfire of a war

the bitterness of noticing

close has never felt this far

everywhere is hollow

my stomach, this home and my heart

i feel like i'm being swallowed

by the void and by the dark.
