Emptiness engulfing,

Like a hunter to it's prey.

No time to realize,

There is not another way.

Darkness lurks,

All around my soul.

The absence growing stronger,

And taking it's endless toll.

Fill the void, buried,

Deep inside of me.

Rescue this heart,

That has given up so easily.

Autonomic rhythm,

Burns through my veins.

While any feeling I have left,

Calls out faintly and wanes.

Can you hear my pleas?

Are you on your way?

I don't know how to survive,

If I am always the prey.
