Vacuum

...


You see a girl
You see the light that radiates from her skin
Her laugh is loud, wild and hearty
She shines, oh how she shines so bright
She has candy in the pockets of her sunflower dresses
Her lips are plum and drip of an even better sweetness

Her touch is like fire
She makes you want everything she wants
In those moments you see a man that is deserving of her
You see who he encourages her to become
You see the love they share and how it blossoms
You see sparks
You see the stars
And you feel that warmth that only she gives
And she gives
And she gives

Vacuum, the hollow
An abyss of nothingness
It wouldn’t have mattered if she had given the very essence if her entire existence
You weren’t looking to be filled
She was just another one
You take the skip in her steps
Smile of her lips
And warmth of her touch
Replace it with a cold, brittle skeleton

You crush her dreams to dust and kill the sparkle in her eyes
You take
And you take
Until there is nothing left

Until she becomes you

Now she becomes addicted to your hollow
