Swallowed

She’s hollow
Trying to follow
A heart
Once broken
now bandaged
Bound by
Ungranted wishes
Under swallowed stars
Needing someone most
Locked in a room alone
Teardrops
On keyboard strokes
Silent heartache
Heartbreak
Gasping for air
Grasping for the notion
That someone
anyone
cares
Foundation crumbling
Her words – she’s stumbling
Nothing makes sense anymore
The black void
Is swallowing her whole
