Empty Lines

Empty lines upon the page
Waiting patiently for me to fill them up
With words of love or words of rage
They don't care at all
Just want to see the letters fall
Giving them a reason to exist
 
Do I write what's on my heart
Is there even anything there at all
Ever since it fell apart
Have I had enough
Maybe I should give it up
Or do I keep on trying to resist
 
Can I fill these empty lines
Can I say what's on my mind
Empty words and empty promises
Are all I have since I was left behind
I can't stand these empty lines
Cause there is nothing on my mind
Empty hopes and empty dreams
My reality is somewhere in between
 
What am I supposed to feel
I'm just going through the motions now
Cause everything in life seems so unreal
Can I hope to find
Something to give me peace of mind
Or is this all that's left for me now
 
Nothing matters anymore
The sun stopped shining in the sky for me
The day that joy walked out the door
It's forever set
Filling me with deep regret
And sorrow's all that my heart will allow
