My heart knew what love was
Once long ago
But love is just a memory
Faded and yellowed with age
Stained by a rain of tears
Falling from haunted eyes
That have seen such hurt

My soul is hollow
Trapped in an empty shell
Longing to reach out
To feel something
Other than the pain
Of being forever alone
In the prison of my mind

"The usefulness of a cup is in its emptiness, for a cup that is full can hold no more."

I know exactly what this poem is about! Sooo beautiful, yet sooo sad!

Those who love deeply Never grow old;
They may die of old age,But they die young.
