Emptiness

This emptiness
Do you know what it feels like
This emptiness
It's hollow, it echoes, and it hurts so much
It's like a pillow pressed down your face
You can't breathe
It's heavy, it's here, and I can't bear
This emptiness

I know it will pass
All else will settle down
I'll be back with a song
But tonight, just tonight
When you are not here by my side
I can't just help feel
This emptiness

The days are just fine
But the nights, those lonely nights
They are unbearable
I toss and I turn
Until the hours turn to dawn
And keeping a watch is
This emptiness

I wonder is it love or am I weak
To suffer like this from
This emptiness
Oh it will go away
With time, with work
With the wait for your return
Till then I'll deal surely with
This emptiness
