Empty Within

Just damn cold inside..

Lost and wandering through
Time has seemed to stop
Coldness has come over
AND A PERMANENT DARKNESS TOO 

The days have faded
A SMILE NO LONGER AROUND 
Nothing is right anymore
WHY DID THE LIGHT GO? 

[CHORUS]

Cause without a tender touch

YOUR CARING SUPPORT

WITHOUT YOU

I'M EMPTY WITHIN

With no hope in sight

GONE IS THE STRENGTH TO FIGHT

WITH THE FADING LIGHTS

I'm empty within

LOST LOVE'S COMFORT

THERE'S NO DRIVE

TO BELIEVE 

I'M SO INCOMPLETE

HOW DO I LIVE?

[CHORUS]

Cause without a tender touch

YOUR CARING SUPPORT

WITHOUT YOU

I'M EMPTY WITHIN

With no hope in sight

GONE IS THE STRENGTH TO FIGHT

WITH THE FADING LIGHTS

I'm empty within

Cold and unfeeling
NEVER FULLY HEALING 
I'm empty within

[Coyote Poetry]

Such strength in each poem. I like the flow of the poetry. Allowing the reader to feel the heart and mind fall to pain and hurt. This poem fell into place with the emotion of love stealing the joy from a life away. A strong ending to a excellent poem.
