The agony of hidden grief
Chambers of the heart
Hollow pain
Full of longing
Empty, empty arms
Empty kisses
Empty love
Love making
Love taking
Faking a smile
Faking interest
in anyone else
The world is full of empty promises
All your soothing words and gestures
Your sincerity and earnestness
Makes me cry
Because you killed me
When you hurt my children, my sister
They say forget the past, don't let what happened there affect you today.
But I can't forget it, I cannot
You killed me there
Don't come back
It hurts
Chambers of the heart
Hollow pain
Full of longing
Empty, empty arms
Empty kisses
Empty love
Love making
Love taking
Faking a smile
Faking interest
in anyone else
The world is full of empty promises
All your soothing words and gestures
Your sincerity and earnestness
Makes me cry
Because you killed me
When you hurt my children, my sister
They say forget the past, don't let what happened there affect you today.
But I can't forget it, I cannot
You killed me there
Don't come back
It hurts
