Cold, Hungry, Tired

My heart, cold and frozen,
Lacking the warmth needed to feel,
Lacking the heat to love,
Lacking the fire for passion.

Starved for affection.
A missing and unfulfilled desire of hunger,
Longing for love and fulfillment in an empty world.

I am tired of hiding,
I am exhausted from running,
I am sick of the walls that isolate me from the outside world.


We all have our own walls built around us,
to protect and defend us.

But mine are so thick, no heat from the outside world can penetrate.
So high that the food of life cant get over,
And i have built them so close to me, I havnt left enough room to rest.

I am responsible for my own discomfort,
yet i am unable to break through my own walls.

I am cold, I am hungry, and I am tired
