i'm hollow—
a gaping chasm of grief, despair
heart throbbing with an empty ache of sorrow
don't try to find me;
i can't even find myself
morals and beliefs drowned in this hell—
of the banshee cries,
an unrecognisable smile;
who am i when everything's changed inside?
keep your distance
keep your guard
deep within;
a monster howls
