Hollow

For my hero Zack

I would be lost

Drifting along

Floating up high

Time after time

And there you'd be

Shining brightly

Your smiling face

To guide my way

Bloody and bruised

Brought to my knees

When beaten down

When broken up

You would appear,

Reach out to me,

Heal every wound,

And make me whole

Was it all a dream?

Will I never know?

Foolish and blind

To everything

Had I realized,

Had I thought it through,

Would you be here

in my embrace?

Shine bright, Once more

Guide me, To you

Smile bright, Once more

This time, I will never let you go

With your every smile

Hiding something more

Dark mysteries

Lurking beneath

But I was consumed

With this emptiness,

This selfishness,

This void to fill

Hear me, Once more

Show me, Your smile

This time, For sure

I'll see

The truth hidden inside your tears!

But I, I know

That you're, Long gone

But I, I will

Go on

Howling and hollow

To never know
