nothing can feed the dead

shredded pieces left here and there
can't find any of them now anywhere
left in memories so far away
distantly fading more every day
hollow and empty eyes that see
what once held only beauty
hollow and empty lips that kiss
pretending passion so not to miss
hollow and empty arms are cold
embracing but not feeling, unable to hold
hollow and empty heart
now nothing there to impart
hollow and empty hunger that can not be fed
since nothing can feed the dead
