A void that echoes of despair and pain | B |
A cavity where loneliness takes its toll | A |
A wound where love fails to sustain | B |

There's a hole in my heart gaping wide | C |
An emptiness that no light can fill | D |
No good food to eat nowhere to hide | C |
Just a hunger that time cannot kill | D |

And in my stomach another gap | E |
Aching with the echoes of starvation | F |
No sympathetic bows no mercy's tap | E |
Just the cruel echoes of deprivation | F |

From the very start a cold cruel world | G |
Unyielding in its unrelenting strife | H |
Every arrow flung every flag unfurled | G |
Marks the harsh rhythm of this life | H |

I toil a telepathic warrior strong | I |
Sending back the poisonous arrows of fate | J |
Turning Cupid's darts around righting the wrong | I |
Breaking free from this unending hate | J |

I strive to stand tall to keep my head low | K |
To piece together the fragments of my soul | A |
To mend the cracks to stem the sorrow's flow | K |
To emerge once more complete and whole | A |

But the hole within me grows ever vast | L |
Fed by the hate that nobody wants | M |
A gaping maw devouring love aghast | L |
Unraveling my resolve taunting my vaunts | M |

Yet still I fight the battles unseen | N |
Each day a skirmish each night a war | O |
Against the tide against the machine | N |
Searching for the light forevermore | O |

For in this world of shadows deep | P |
In this tapestry of light and shade | Q |
I seek the promises I meant to keep | P |
I yearn for the solace of love's sweet glade | Q |

So I shall march on relentless and bold | R |
Against the darkness against the tide | C |
With faith as my armor truth as my hold | R |
In the face of despair I shall abide | C |

And though the hole within me may grow | O |
And though the struggles may never cease | M |
I will nurture the seeds of hope I sow | M |
For in that darkness there lies peace | M |
- | |
The hole within me a wound to mend | S |
A challenge to conquer a burden to bear | O |
In its depths a message to send | S |
Of resilience of strength of the spirit laid bare | O |
- | |
So let the hole be my battle cry | O |
A testament to the trials I face | M |
For in the midst of darkness I shall defy | O |
And emerge victorious in love's embrace | M |
