sadness consumed my whole being
wanting me to succumb to it
the blank void displayed in my eyes
contrasts the smile forced on my face
loneliness was what i felt
when i realized i was missing your embrace
the absence of someone
that can never be present again
hurt, the painful ache in my chest
spreading to my entire system
bit by bit, it spreads everywhere
until i cannot breathe
numb must be the word
that describes my current state
you sense all kinds of emotions
but deprived to feel anything
oh clarke, see the effect you have on me?
i've already let you go
but my emotions won't set me free.
