Hollow

With the scent
I'm swept away
the rays carry
my yesterdays feelings
into tomorrows action
stable confident courageous
a smile I've experienced
without a frown to follow
though I'm lying,
my life is about
feelings of sorrow
that's why I keep looking
but not happy just focused
on the time and affection
borrowed
with persistence
too thick to be swallowed
resulting in a famine
of love that continuously
keeps my nerves
