Heartless

Heart beats no more
Quiet, nothing but a soul

no heart, no emotion
Where's the commotion? It's quiet like the ocean on a cold night
The breeze flows through
I feel nothing, but my soul

My heart is long gone, stolen
From the souls I once trusted
Feelings and emotions flushed into the ocean
They left my heart to be broken; torn, I was
But still looking for all my emotions

The souls are never satisfied
Still wanted to haunt my mind, rip me apart
But I still found the kindness in my heart to forgive and forget
But they always left me crying in my bed

I was always there, my hand was always out
But it was never the other way around
My heart broken, I was left to find the pieces
Alone, I was
But there was always a smile on my face
Those souls never saw the challenges I face

Those souls never cared, as long as I was there
No calls, texts or even are you Okay?
But it's cool, I caught up to the mood

Now I'm heartless, I never switched up
Fed back the same energy, they ain't like it too much
Neither did I, Thanks for leaving me heartless
Now no more worries on my mind
