Empty Arms

By Dragonlady

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Empty arms Hurt so bad They make you wonder About what you've never had Empty arms Crush your insides They make you uncover All the things you try to hide The world seems so big And you feel so small But you can't run away Because you just learned to crawl And you want to cry Because there's nowhere to turn And the more they say The less you learn And the more they do The less they say And you watch until They've gone away Empty arms Are all they leave And you use to try so hard But now you can't believe Because empty arms hurt Love hurts to But it always seems like They only hurt you Written January 13th, 2002 © on Jan 12 2002 04:42 PM PST   0 • 1
