Hollow man

have you ever had one of those days, where you felt completely hollow inside?
like the most important parts of you have been ripped away, leaving nothing but a deep dark hole...

so many days i feel good, moving on...
and then you show up, in my dreams...

sweet dreams turn to nightmare, as i awaken...
soul torn into tiny pieces...

looking forward, nothing but darkness...
looking back, more of the same...

anchor of sanity, so strong
if it were not so, i would have slipped away...

how can one be strong, when they feel nothing but pain?
how can one move on, when they are empty...
there best parts shred and torn...
understanding that what was thought so special, was only so on one side of the river...

spiraling deeper, unwilling to replace...
but how could one ever truly replace that thing that completely filled ones heart
with joy, hope, solitude...

gone forever...
no hope...
no joy...
no peace...
