I feel empty.

The kind of empty that cannot be filled with noise, music, or company.

The kind of empty that echos throughout my body.

The kind of empty that lingers and sticks to me no matter how hard I fight it.

The kind of empty that leaves me breathless.

I feel empty.

The kind of empty that cannot sleep the nights knowing her heart is beating for someone… but I cannot feel it.

I feel empty.

But at least I feel something.
