Empty

I have no empathy, Rip me open, and inside you will see, the reason I despise the emptiness ,the lies, the tears I can’t cry the look of isolation deep set in my eyes. I’m praying one day to feel something, Because everyday I’m numb,and I’m choking, Left to drown in a sea of nothing, Sick to death of all this suffering. My hearts exhausted by destruction, With a mind lacking any emotion, My whole body has no compassion , Or room for any affection.

I don't feel capable of the kind of comment this poem needs but just to say that I felt your words and your frustrations. Life can be hard but there are subtle changes and micro good choices we can make to allow an upwards trajectory. Think about what you expose yourself to that fuels these feelings and within that which are within your control. Watching TV, being around falseness or incivility can negatively feed low mood. Start small but positive steps, hope it's just a poem/point in time
