Hollow Echos

The corner in which you sat, is now dark and the chair is over turned....
The music has stopped...
And all has gone still...

Where you lived within me is now hollow
Only a vague imprint remaining...

Apathy has set in...

The sound of your laughter has faded...
I think I have already forgotten what it sounds like.
I know I should feel more...
I try to feel more...
But the anger and tears have shredded it all...

How did it become this?

I just don't have enough strength for you and me.

DISRESPECT!!
DISRESPECT!!
That word is stuck in a loop in my head...
DISRESPECT!!

Who are you to disrespect me, when you have no respect for yourself?
Who are you to judge me when, when you are a fallen sinner yourself?
Who are you to tell me I am nothing, when you haven't yet found your own self worth?
Who are you to hang me from the gallows of my heart, when your own heart is frozen in the fear of your own past?

Carry on I say to you...
Carry on...
I have nothing left for you today....
I will not be your soft place to fall, nor will I plegde my unwilling loyalty to you...
Who are you to me?
You are to me, as I have been to blind to see, Who I am to you...

Nobody...

Just a passing stranger who shared a pinhole moment in the timeline of your life....
A moment created
A laugh shared...
A memory made...
A thought that has now been misplaced...

I am searching...
I am feeling...
I am hoping...

But there is nothing...
It has all become hollow....
