The Void

My body an empty hollow vessel Your words of love are meant for me To fill my soul against its doubt Still the void within rages Sometimes love is not enough I struggle for fulfilling sustenance My heart beats in empty hollow rhythms Hoping your love as true will lift me up But still the void within rages Sometimes love is not enough Some days my soul's anguish vilipend I hold your love cradled To ease my empty hollow despair But still the void within rages Sometimes love is not enough 2nd place in contest
