• There's a hole in my heart
    not a very big one...
    but enough
    When I am with someone who cares
    the emotion spreads to me
    and fills me with joy
    with love
    and with peace
    making me feel
    like a whole person again
    For awhile,
    my heart overflows with the passion for living
    that the encounter has created...
    but then
    gradually
    the emotion drains away
    trickling down
    slowly but steadily
    through the hole
    drip...
    drip...
    drip...
    leaving me
    empty
    once
    more...
