Emotionless Abyss

As he shares his sorrows of past pain
a laugh is absent; a tear is non-existent
Even a frown is wiped from a canvas
once painted in a rainbow of emotions,
After being smudged by sleeves of villainy.
And the once joyful child is now
oppressed by a greyed fist of his own blood.
But then he just sighs with eyes of hopelessness,
"I am a robot who does not deserve your kiss
For I am an emotionless abyss"
