Empty Shell Screaming

In need of some useful advice.

An empty shell screams at the endless sky,
Thoughts and emotions, hollow, oh why, oh why?
I crave to feel something, a spark, a flame,
But all I feel is emptiness, a lingering shame.

Crying, smashing, grunting, despair,
Why does this void persist? It’s so unfair.
Once, I knew love, joy, felt so alive,
But now seven years have blurred as I survive.

Is she still trapped in the depths of my mind?
Her ghost haunting, refusing to unwind.
Oh, this burden, it’s heavy, it’s cruel,
My heart, my soul, a stubborn old fool.

Someone, anyone, I need your light,
To guide me through this endless night.
I’m kind and humble, yet pain I impart,
Unintentionally hurting, tearing apart.

I long to feel love, or a fleeting bliss,
But at what cost, what did I miss?
Sweet in my nature, yet sour within,
Like a lemon, my battles start and begin.

I’m desperate, lost, and seeking my way,
Crying out for answers, for hope today.
Help me feel, help me find what I’ve lost,
A purpose, a spark, no matter the cost.
