Hollow

To you, I'm all I've left undone,

I'm all I haven't me up my soul's so hollow,Lift me up

Another sigh. Clanging of a chair and a metal desk.

You take, the breath you didn't make.

The clink of a 9mm pistol. A drawer opening. Yet another sigh.

What's left you did forsake.

A picture of a tall brunette and a shorter, raven-haired girl, with her arm slung over the taller one's shoulder. They each bore an expression of happiness.

Lift me up my soul's so hollow

A clutched hand turned white from holding the frame.

Lift me up my soul's so hollow

A whispered name. The frame shoved back into the desk, silent tears.

You can make me scream internally

The girl reflects on her life.

You can make me breathe eternally

Why DID she take the police job, knowing she would lose her best friend?

Yeah~

Not to mention the rest of them.

You see, the things I cannot change

All but little Chiyo, good ol' Chiyo.

The things that make me plain

A rough voice calling from the background. "Takino!"

Lift me up my soul's so hollow

She ignored him. He came stomping in.

Lift me up

A house, a break-in, more grief.

We've made, all from the sum of none

Police sirens. Her supposed dream job. Not a dream, a nightmare.

All that we have become

The house looked vaguely familiar. She stopped.

Lift me up my soul's so hollow

Out with the gun, cocked into position.

Lift me up my soul's so hollow

Safety off, breaking the door down. "POLICE!" A cry in the night.

You can make me scream internally

Nobody. A whisper from the shadows. "Tomo?"

You can make me breathe eternally

Whirling around, gun poised to shoot. "Who is-"

You can make me scream internally

Realization. Gun thudding to the ground, miraculously not going off. A deep sob.

You can make me breathe eternally

A strong hug. Another sob. A single name. "Yomi." Disbelief.

Yeah

A real smile, the first in many.

Fill, fill what's in meFill, fill what's in youFill, fill what's in me

Shared greetings, questions. "How have you been?" Tearful laughter.

So my soul's not left so hollow

Shared memories.

You can make me SCREAM

And shared friendship.

You can make me BREATHE

You can make me scream internallyYou can make me breathe eternallyYou can make me screamYou can make me breatheYou can make me scream

Two small kids laughing and running on an empty road to an ending sunset. Holding hands and jumping in sync.

You can make me breathe, me breathe

Alright guys, I'ma say this now. This probably sucked, I know. And I apologize for the long wait for a story. I'm still semi-working on "Snow" with what little inspiration I have, but I promise, I WILL get that done by the time I die :D.

But anyways, really, if it sucks, shoot me. I won't mind. But then again, maybe I do. O-o. But ANYWAYS, once again, I apologize for the long wait. I had this and "Young" written out forever ago, just never felt like typing them up. So, here they are. Try and enjoy D:.
