EMPTY ROOM

Broken and bereft, clutching his hand.

Yes a woman I am, a glorious sham.

There is no reason or nursery rhyme.

So just tell me why you left me last night.

​

Empty hopes. Empty dreams.

Empty shadows. Empty screams.

An empty bed is where she rests.

Now our home's an empty nest.

Through hollow nights and fruitless days

I thought my love could keep you safe.

But now my womb is just an empty room.

​

I'm waking up to demons galore.

They're moving through my feminine floor.

I'm drowning in crimson and I'm drinking your rain.

You called my bluff, cashed in my pain.

​

It wasn't you, it wasn't me.

It just wasn't meant to be.

Roll the dice. Take the bet.

Let it go.

Try again.
